Through Transformational Community Development (TCD), our Empowerment Centre has been giving help and hope to many who are in the dark and have no one to direct and assist them through their crisis.
Zeinabu, a mother of two from Ola Bulle, has been a single mum for over three and half years. She has finally become a champion for her village after she took the initiative to start her own business selling uniforms. Many admire her for her hard work, the beautiful dresses she’s made for the village women, and how she is taking care of her family in the absence of a fatherly figure.
Mary is one of the beneficiaries of the Transformational Community Development (TCD) hairdressing programme. Her parents died when she was four years old and her younger sister was two years old. Her grandmother took care of them with the help of the neighbours, since they had no source of income. Mary grew up in a very stressful environment, being exposed to child labour early in life.
Recently, she learnt about the Centre of Help and Hope from her friends who passed by and had received knowledge and skills to succeed in life. Mary was able to join, and she was part of our students for two months. Now, she makes a small income from the knowledge she learnt at our centre.
As GHNI, we are proud that we have achieved our goal of bringing Help and Hope to many who are Hidden and Hurting.
Thank you!
