A K O L A : ( v. ) S H E W O R K S

Akola is a non-profit with a mission related jewelry business that invests in women in extreme poverty to become agents of transformation in their families and communities.


L AY I N G T H E G R O U N D W O R K {LETTER FROM FOUNDER} 2014 marked the ten-year anniversary from my first trip to Uganda, when my heart was moved to compassion by a Ugandan woman named Sarah. Sarah cared for 24 street children in her home and my compassion for the children and her trying circumstance escalated to action. In 2007, we launched a new sustainable model to uplift women and children. The women named it ‘Akola,’ which means ‘to work’ in their local dialect. In 2015, thanks to incredible efforts from our teams in Uganda and the US, Akola is poised to grow our impact significantly through our development projects and the success of our Akola product line. 2014 was a year spent investing in the groundwork to scale Akola’s impact and product line in 2015. In addition to providing vocational training, dependable employment and holistic programs to 250 women in rural Uganda, we spent the year with 9 executives from Execut i v e s i n A c t i o n w o r k i n g o n a s t r a t e g i c p l a n . We a l s o p a r t i c i p a t ed in Praxis Non-Profit Accelorator Program, refining the model, learning about innovative impact investment opportunities, and eventually winning the grand prize at The Gathering event i n S e p t e m b e r. In 2014, we brought the Akola development model to Dallas through a partnership with New Friends, New Life to offer an economic alternative to sex trafficking victims with business t r a i n i n g a n d e m p l o y m e n t a t o u r U S d i s t r i b u t i o n c e n t e r. I am excited to share our model that has become a platform to inspire a generation of social entrepreneurs to deliver the highest level of impact to transform the lives of women and child r e n i n p o v e r t y. O u r g o a l i s t o e n c o u r a g e n e w t h i n k i n g a b o u t international development and to inspire the next generation of social innovators. Blessings, Brittany Merrill Underwood Founder & President AKOLA

HIV/AIDS COUNSELING & TESTING

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

Akola Project partners with the Aids Information Center in Jinja to provide HIV testing and counseling to all Akola members in Eastern Uganda. THE AIC counselors meet with each member to review the results of the test, and for those who tested positive, the counselors offer additional emotional support, as well as practical information about where the member can receive free HIV/AIDS treatment.

Our business programs address the financial education and planning gaps that are hindering our members’ ability to translate their increased access to capital and their increased sense of self into small business initiatives in their communities. Each year topics are chosen based on an analysis of the goals our members have chosen, to ensure that our programming best supports their growth in the areas they have chosen.

MALAR IA T E S T I N G

Examples of small business educational programming might be how to assess if there is a market for your product, how to calculate when you project to earn back your initial investment, how to keep records, components of customer service, and small-scale marketing.

Akola Project partners with the AIC to host a “Lunch and Learn” seminars where the AIC gives talks on malaria. Akola also sponsors free malaria blood tests. T U B E R C U LO S I S E D U CAT I O N Akola Project partners with the AIC to launch informational seminars on the dangers of TB. TB has particular relevance for our members because among those at the highest risk for TB are babies and young children, and those who are HIV positive. The seminar shares about the types of TB, how TB works, the symptoms of TB, how TB is different from other diseases, how to prevent TB, and how to treat TB. VISION MAINTENANCE Akola provides free vision tests and provides reading glasses for women in the program. FAM I LY P LAN N I N G & MAT E R NAL H EALT H S E M I NAR Akola partners with the Uganda Village Project to offer our members in Eastern Uganda programs on family planning and maternal health. The programs covers the importance of family planning, myths and misconceptions and presents healthy family planning methods.

Through these programs, women learn the process of goal setting and planning, which will enable each member to take ownership of her own development. FINACIAL LITERACY Akola programs include robust financial literacy training including budgeting, savings and loans. Family and Business Budgeting helps members better manage their finances to meet their goals. Our courses include wants vs. needs, income vs. expenditure, and discussions around why it is important to keep family and business finances separate. During these classes we look at different types of growth financing, from loans with interest to savings to savings with interest. We have interactive activities to allow our members to practice balancing a budget, determining the viability of a hypothetical business, and determining which types of growth capital are appropriate for which types of opportunities.

MINISTRY

WE LLNE SS

VILLAGE FELLOWSHIP Village Fellowship is a small group program with the goal of creating a space for members to grapple more deeply with the word of God. Each member has the opportunity to meet once a month with her small group. Village Fellowship also serves as an opportunity for Akola to identify and cultivate strong leaders in our village programs. *During Village Fellowship members have asked each other “How can we know God?” and “What about us shows that we are made in the image of God?” As the women grow more comfortable with engaging directly with scripture, they are increasingly able to identify ways in which individual verses apply directly to their everyday lives. SCRIPTURE SEARCH Akola incorporates World Vision’s Scripture Search model to encourage participants to share their experiences as they relate to a particular verse or passage. This activity also encourages interfaith dialogue between Akola members. *During an evaluation of the program at the six-month mark, one member revealed she was so thankful for a program that “teaches the gospel instead of preaches the gospel.” WELLNESS Akola promotes women in the program to become wellness officers to support fellow Akola members in times of loss by aattending funerals, births and weddings. Wellness Officers also visit very sick members to offer practical and spiritual support.

“Women who work with Akola can earn an average of four times the local wage, according to the Project. And this income can stretch far, Underwood says, to not only support the women and their own children, but for some, it can change the lives of generations to come.”

“The Akola Project is giving opportunity to Ugandan women like I’ve never heard or seen before.” “A woman that not only inspires, but a woman who is changing the course of impact for social businesses and citizens around the world. Brittany has done a job well done for humanity.”
