Description
Children’s Welfare International (CWI) is a US based 501 (C) (3) non-profit organization which is also accredited in Liberia as a Non-governmental organization (NGO). CWI promotes a holistic and collaborative approach to caring for, protecting and empowering vulnerable children around the world.
Our organization started as a modest grassroots effort to provide a better and more hopeful future for impoverished, homeless and orphaned children in the wake of the Second Liberian Civil War.
We strive to break the cycle of injustice and child poverty by providing a center in Liberia which serves as a safe haven - keeping Liberian children safely off the streets.
In Liberia, children coming to our center receive school sponsorship, nutritious meals, and recreational activities with future plans to open a temporary provisional facility and additional family support services.
In the US, CWI continues its mission by providing Educational enrichment, College preparation, and Career development services for low income and under -served communities. It takes a village to raise a child.
For this reason, CWI works collaboratively with local and international agencies and community leaders to accomplish our mission while promoting community empowerment for sustainable development.
Children and Youth are at the focus of our efforts as they represent the future.
