This August we celebrated the graduation of the second cohort of our Malkia program for women working in prostitution. The 10 graduates went through a 9-month training that equipped them with life skills, entrepreneurship, and leadership skills to support their journey of transformation. Through the training, the women learned important skills like yogurt and mat making and got insights on how to set up and run a business. They also went through several group therapy sessions that helped them heal from past trauma.
“I personally can attest that my life took a new turn the moment I met Freely In Hope. During the training, they provided us with all the materials required for learning. They helped me realize my true potential and made me understand that there was more to life than I thought. I went through the entire training and today I am empowered, my life has changed completely and I express my sincere gratitude.” Martha, Malkia Program beneficiary.
Thank you for your support that has transformed the lives of these women!
