In South Africa, unemployment affects nearly 50% of young women in townships. Many are single mothers with no formal education or access to employment opportunities. Without skills, job connections, or support systems, they are trapped in poverty-unable to feed their families or build a stable future. Even talented women with business ideas often lack the knowledge or resources to take the first step.
Your donation will support the establishment of a Business Skills Centre in Africa that teaches entrepreneurship, financial management, and digital literacy. The centre will offer hands-on training, mentorship, and resources to youth entrepreneurs, helping them launch businesses and become leaders in their communities. By empowering young people with business education, we will unlock their potential to drive economic growth and create lasting change.
A donation of just $10 provides enough materials for a woman to gain the necessary skills for her new business . Thank you for your support
