Hello everyone and happy new year! We hope that everyone has had a great start to the new year so far. We at Until There’s A Cure would like to update you on our current project, Empower A Women, Empower The World. Fundraising for our current project allows us to support women in South Africa and help them provide for themselves and their families. Thank you to all of you that have donated so far!
We still have a ways to go before we reach our goal, however over the holidays we were able to place a very large order with all new products that are handmade by these amazing women. Some of the new products included bracelets, scarves, lanyards, stuffed animals, bags, and so much more. Our purchases of these large product orders directly impact the artisans by giving them job opportunities and allows them to provide for their families.
It is extremely important that we reach our $2,000 goal as COVID-19 is still heavily impacting HIV testing and treatment which is leading to a spike in HIV cases in South Africa. By donating to our project, you are continuing to allow us to make a positive impact on the lives of these women which allows them to gain self-confidence and be able to provide for themselves and their families.
