Economic Empowerment
Empowering Communities to Support Themselves
Economic Empowerment program is designed to give communities the tools to be able to support themselves economically. Our objectives under this scheme;
- To uplift the caregiver’s/guardians and parents of vulnerable children’s economic status by providing startup kits for enterprises aimed at generating family income.
- To help parents regain the self-esteem they have lost through poverty and their inability to meet their children’s basic needs, giving them a legitimate income to support themselves and their dependents.
- To teach communities on financial responsibility.
