At the College of West Africa, we are more than just an educational institution. We are a beacon of hope, firmly rooted in the belief of not giving up on Africa. Founded with a vision to provide quality education for the young people of Liberia, our legacy is deeply intertwined with the pioneering spirit of Melville B. Cox, a Methodist missionary whose dedication and sacrifice continue to inspire us.
OUR MISSION
To make disciples of Jesus Christ for the Transformation of the world through education, an attitude of service permeates every aspect of school life.
College of West Africa, one of Liberia’s oldest educational institutions, faces challenges due to financial constraints preventing many students from enrolling. With a high unemployment rate among parents, there is a pressing need for human resource development in Liberia. Your support can make a difference – just 800USD can support a student for a year
