Empowerment of Teenage Mothers

Thank you all our supporters to our project for Hope for  Teenage Mothers empowement in Kenya.Everyday we have seen a positive change in our communities due to the support that you are giving to us.  

Women from Kenya have learned the skills of independence.Through these skills they are feeding their children and paying school fees for them.This is a trend that has grown in Kenyan communities especially in 3 projects that we are supporting .Women in the urban areas are receiving mentorship from their children and grand children who are in school and  being encouraged to take adult learning.One woman said, "I do not want to be left behind".A follow up on her shows that she can now  read and write .She is  also able to interprete patterns which she translates into weaving bags.   

The local market is available for the products made by the women and are looking to expanding them.The materials used to make the handmade products are locally avaiable and most of them are organic .

We encourage all to get involved.

Karibu! (Welcome)

Thank you very much.

Thank you all our friends, donors and supporters to our project;The gap in the underserved communities for business skills for young women in Kenya has been re-affirmed and strongly legitimizes the need for Hope for Teenage Mothers programs. Currently there are 30 women being  trained on entrepreneurship and will graduate by end of June 2018. After which they will continue with their initiated businesses. Many others  who are not yet in the program are looking forwards to start the training in the coming months starting July 2018.The Mentoring reports  received during the last four months indicates that most businesses are operating well and have potential for growing.Some businesses includes ;agri farming,crochet, weaving,hand craft.

During our discussions with the young women during site visits , many stated that the main benefits of the business includes: their ability to engage in income generating activities; they are able to also diversify their economic activities by coming up with various innovations and that they are  also learning to save money easily and to  borrow with miminum interest rates.

We really apprecite your involvement in this project.

Thank you.
