Help Train & Develop Women Trading in Pakistan

One of the biggest obstacles for women smes towardz expansion is supply chain.

Hiba (name changed), founder of a textile brand, was offered a big contract from a leading US brand but was required to make 100,000 of her product. She became scared, then panicky, and so refused.

She was thereafter introduced to us. One on the main purposes of training women smes is so they can rise to these opportunities. Your funds make all the difference here as they go to building capacity. Now, Hiba sees these opportunities as for her to rise with all our help, rather than an overwhelming, confusing situation. 

The more you give, the more women who are trained.

Thank you for your generosity.

Women SMEs are struggling.  The fourth wave of COVID-19 has hit Pakistan - the Delta Variant - and is expected to be worse than the previous three combined.  Exhibitions have been shut again with no announced date to reopen.

Since no one actually knows what the impact will be, home businesses and small businesses are scared they may have to shut down permanently, and more importantly, how to pay their next bills.

We are connecting women SMEs to various ecommerce sites and working closely with the State Bank of Pakistan to nominate women for loans from a local bank through the State Bank's women SME scheme.

But, it's more than just "connections" - it is training. How to market, how to leverage those connections.

Your donations are going toward giving talented women the training to build their brands and leverage opportunities.  Now, more than ever, your help is needed. Thank you for all you have given. We need your help even more. Please give today!
