Vocational Training for 5,000 Women in Pakistan

Thank you to everyone who donated in 2016, your support enables vulnerable women to gain access to the skills, resources, and network needed to grow and start enterprises. In 2017 we hope to grow this program to serve more women as well as provide hard skills, equipment, and materials for women wishing to hone their embellishment skils for high-end fashion and wedding attire. By providing women with business and financial management skills, along with assistance in specific trades and the market-linkages that get product to market, women can earn greater incomes. More income translates to improved health, education, and livelihoods for families. Thank you for making this important work possible. 

The Safer World Foundation continues to match every donation made to this project by 50%. Please share this opportunity with friends and family you think might be interested in supporting underserved young women in Pakistan so that they may receive the hand up they need to chose peace and prosperity over violence and despair.

We always welcome visitors at our schools or trainings which can be arranged through our director, Farida fahmad@moqah.org. Please help us generate awareness – become a fan of our Facebook page, join us on Twitter, and share with your networks if you haven't already. If you or anyone you know would like to start a MDF Allies in Action group in your community there are various one-time or annual or monthly ideas and activities.

Thank you on behalf of the students, entrepreneurs and MDF staff!
