Enhancing Livelihood for 100 women is progressing well. The recieved funds were distributed to individuals and groups who came up with specific activities to generate income. The income generating activities includes, small market vending buiness, farming/agriculture and garments making among others.
Generally, Enhancing livelihood project fundraising has drastically syrinked, the un-presidented Covid-19 moment is making it hard to reach donors and meet the proposed target.
Among many supported initiatives, one of the group in omiyanyima called Kacel watwero recieved 100,000 UGX equiverlent of $29 and they used the money to plough one (1) hector of maize garden. The crop is doing well and they hope to get a minimum of 5 sacks of the grain if no weather changes interfear.
On an interesting note, girls trained by FOWAC in tailoring have proudly started making Delivery kits called SHE DEAL MAMA KIT to help mothers when going for labor. The objective is to ensure that vulnarable women can afford the kit when going to give birth at a less cost and deliver decently.
