We uplift & empower the people of Liberia
We uplift and empower the people of Liberia by meeting essential needs and unlocking opportunities through education, all to inspire change and transform lives.
by meeting both immediate needs and long-term opportunities.
We believe that education and basic necessities go hand in hand—you can’t learn if essential needs aren’t met, and providing essentials without education doesn’t create lasting impact.
That is why
we are committed to creating lasting change
We accept essential items such as clothing, school supplies, and hygiene products.
If you'd like to support our work financially, you can send donations!

Our founder, Comfort Beene, is from Liberia and her family lived through the country’s civil war and refugee crisis firsthand. This isn’t charity from a distance—it’s a mission rooted in lived experience, love, and legacy. Raised funds and supplies go directly to a trusted ground partners that our founder has a personal relationship with ensuring food, supplies, and support reach those who need it most. There is no middleman, no confusion—just direct, life-changing impact. Comfort visits Liberia annually to personally connect with the people we serve, and her story is the heartbeat of this mission. We invite you to read more about Comfort’s journey and why this work means so much to her—and to all of us.

Building a Strong Foundation
From the beginning, we have been intentional about building Comfort the Nation on a solid legal and operational foundation. We partnered with experienced nonprofit professionals to ensure our organization was established responsibly and in full compliance with federal requirements.
Attorney Pat Gibert, a specialist in nonprofit law, guided the preparation and filing of our 501(c)(3) application and continues to advise us on best practices for governance, bylaws, and long-term legal structure.
We worked closely with Liz Kinsfather of Kinsfather Consulting, a nonprofit specialist who supported our early formation process and provided strategic guidance on nonprofit operations, sustainability, and mission-driven growth.
