Thank you for opening our eyes now we leave in a whole new world! your generos contribution have supported us to change our lives.
“Before I joined the literacy program I was experiencing domestic violence at home, one of the many causes I discovered was poor communication and misinterpretation of basic facts which I dint have any idea, we were arguing with my husband and my family members a lot. The deepest pain I had was my inability to support my children with their school homework and challenges related to making daily losses with my small business". Said Mary

Eunice
You can make a huge difference by investing as low as $50 it can help change someone’s life together with her family.
Meet Eunice a mother of 3 who formally was illiterate and had no source of livelihood. Her joining int the microloan program not only provided her the opportunity to get microloan but also gave her a chance to join the adult literacy training that has changed her life priorities
“ The most important benefit is that feels confident and proud of me, my ability to express my ideas is something I never expected but after learning how to read and write I can manage my business better and I want to give all my children the opportunity to go to a school that’s why I invested my savings in buying a solar panel that can provide lighting to facilitate my children’s education I know they will change our community in future”
Women like Eunice is the reason why microloans and women’s empowerment is important because the benefits lift the entire community.
