WE WILL ACCOMPLISH THIS PURPOSE THROUGH: 

  • Raising funds to directly fund our programs

  • Creating programs that enable self-sufficiency and sustainability in a woman’s personal and professional life

  • Providing education for basic and advanced skills to enhance career, relationships and personal life

  • Supporting women that gives them a platform for success and advancement

  • Sustaining an on-going relationship with those women we helped, encouraging them to reach out and help other women

But what does it really mean

to an individual woman we help? 

WHAT WE THINK IT MEANS TO HELP EMPOWER EACH INDIVIDUAL WOMAN:

  • Realize her own potential value

  • Break the cycle of poverty

  • Raise her children without fear, while becoming a successful role model and breaking the cycle of dependency

  • Break the cycle of subservience in a society where women haven’t had equal rights throughout our history

  • Actively participate in the political future of the world

  • Speak out without fear of being marginalize just because she is a woman

  • Understand her value to herself and others

  • Improve her self-esteem

  • Understand her birth control rights and options to help prevent unwanted pregnancies and parental responsibilities
