Domestic violence is common in Kenya. Seventy five percent of women expect to be abused by their husbands. Extreme poverty leads many women into marriage with hopes of a better life, but this rarely improves their situations. Our ministry provides an alternative to help these women and teenage girls to acquire a skill that will give them an opportunity to earn a living for themselves and their children.
We have established a sewing school to teach them how to make clothing, school uniforms and crafts that will give them items to sell in their businesses. The school will be taught and run by Kenyans who we are presently training.We need sewing machines, tables, chairs and basic supplies to equip the school for students in our classes. Your financial help will go a long way to enable us to empower these women.
