Next Step Venezuela (NSVZLA)
Since 2017, Better World has supported Pastor Abihail Lara and his ministry through a unique, sustainable model: all income from our Venezuelan barcode sales directly funds local transformation.
A Sustainable Model
By managing the regional barcode website, Abihail generates the resources needed to fuel Next Step Venezuela. This partnership empowers local leadership to address the specific economic and spiritual needs of their community without relying solely on external aid.
Vision for the Future
Current efforts are focused on the Valencia Operations Centre. This facility is being remodeled with the ambitious vision of establishing a Christian university to serve the next generation of Venezuelan leaders.
