About Building Everyones Success Together In West Africa
A meal can be the first step toward keeping a child healthy and in school. BESTWA supports vulnerable Liberians through four feeding sites in Grand Bassa County, scholarships, emergency food and medical shipments, maternal health assistance, and care for orphans and elderly adults. Your gift helps address immediate needs while supporting children, families, and students over time.
BESTWA’s work reaches across several points of need in Liberia, from daily food and emergency medical care for children to university scholarships and support for mothers and babies.
