Founded in the year 2020, Friends of Liver Foundation, West Bengal (Friends of LFWB), is a not-for-profit organization that intends to serve as a broad forum for friendship for nurturing and doing anything that help lives in trouble due to ailments that repeatedly assail humanity, medically as well as socially.
We undertake collective social as well as institutional initiatives in health care service delivery and research. Addressing inequity in access to health care by the world’s poorest communities through concerted efforts serving as a platform is our broad goal. We wish to bridge the gap between personalized and social medicine, always try to be grounded, evidence based and cultivate knowledge as the power while commitment propels us to the unlit corridors of society.
Our Mission
Our mission closely resembles the mission of Liver Foundation, West Bengal, India, which is, increasing the knowledge about liver problems and application of measures to eradicate them in a defined geography. FLFWB is philosophically aligned to LFWB, as the name suggests, but would be linked through reciprocal work instead of being Siamese twins. This would enable both the organizations to enlarge the ambit of action in new geographical territories, as we leverage resources to have a global impact on the health and wellbeing of people.
Although health is the domain of focus in FLFWB work, we would like to engage into complimentary actions in human development and welfare broadly, according to our resources.
