Despite all the essential tasks that women take care of, they are not given the respect and treatment that they deserve. So, our purpose is to empower women who are the backbone of society and lift them out of poverty so that they can strengthen the upward mobility of entire communities and shape future generations.
Our program
Our program within this realm mainly involves providing tools to foster livelihood and independence amongst the most vulnerable groups such as widows, the elderly, the disabled, and victims of domestic violence.
One empowerment tool we use is donating chicken coups and goats to them. By donating 10 chickens or 1-2 goats, they can earn a living by selling eggs, chickens, goat milk, and breeding goats. We also assist in the creation of individual kitchen gardens for them and where resources allow, install rainwater harvesting technology for clean water.
Another tool for them include, small business start-up courses such as hair dressing, tailoring, beauty and catering, etc. (2 times a week, 2 hrs. each meeting).
After supplying these means of empowerment, we provide financial education so that they can become fully independent and profitable long-term. This money not only feed their children, buys clothes, and pay for school fees, but it also allows them to escape the cycle of dependency and abuse.
Preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ encompasses all our activities altogether.
