Health Equity & Well-being

Our Commitment

At Youth Glow, we believe good health is the foundation for thriving communities. Our Health Equity & Well-being program breaks barriers to healthcare by combining peer education with community-led outreach.

Why It Matters

In rural Liberia, preventable diseases like malaria, waterborne illnesses, and vaccine-preventable infections continue to threaten lives—especially among women and children—due to limited access to healthcare and information.

Our Approach

We empower trained community health volunteers to:

  • Prevent Malaria: Distribute bed nets, promote prevention, and support early treatment.

  • Expand Immunization: Mobilize families for routine and catch-up vaccinations.

  • Promote WASH Education: Teach safe water, sanitation, and hygiene practices.

  • Support Maternal & Child Health: Offer prenatal guidance, breastfeeding support, and health referrals.

Impact

  • 5,000+ people reached through health campaigns

  • 2,000+ vaccinations supported

  • Dozens of WASH sessions conducted in rural communities

  • Partnerships with local health teams to strengthen healthcare access
