    It's an effort to empower women. Assist several impoverished women and girls in need and provide them with life skills training. Women receive training in life skills and job tasks such as crocheting, knitting, mask-making, bag-stitching, and other handicrafts. people are our constant source of work, which people either bring to our centres to do or take home.
