Empowerment through: Literacy classes, Farming, chicken keeping, Honey production, Briquette, Sales & marketing training, Tailoring classes, Hairdressing and beauty, Health & wellness classes and Evangelism training. Every morning before they go to their respective classes the women have a morning devotion session for one hour and thereafter, a general life enrichment class where they are taught how to deal with stress, anger, grief etc. Our programs continue to grow as we add more classrooms and more learning opportunities.
