Empowering The Global Woman
“There is no tool for development more effective than the empowerment of women,”
~ Secretary General Kofi Annan.
Over the past 13 years, hundreds of women have benefitted from our various skills training programs and have become entrepreneurs, owning their own businesses upon graduation. We create job opportunities for the women that complete the 6-months sewing training program to produce uniforms for our 600 students annually.
