To alleviate poverty and human suffering, Kwatekeh Africa seeks to follow the call of Christ by serving vulnerable and at-risk communities in and around Suakoko, Liberia.
We are motivated by God's words spoken by Isaiah to "spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed."
We currently work at a leprosy center, an orphanage and several nearby villages. We are engaged in fish farming, rice cultivation, vegetable and fruit tree production, providing access to clean drinking water, caring for orphans, leprosy patients and elderly residents, providing medical care to all in need, and supporting young women as they pursue their education.
Kwa-tee-kuh (kwa-tee-kuh) is a word from the Kpelle language, which is spoken in much of Liberia, that means βTo work together.β
