WOMEN’S EMPOWERMENT Our Mission To encourage women around the world to realize their value and reach their potential through job training and education. As a result, many enrolled in our Women’s Empowerment program now own a business that allows them to better feed and care for their children.

Why Empower Women? When women are given the opportunity to generate income, it impacts their families and their country’s economic standing. We want to empower women around the world to make strategic, independent life choices through community-based training and non-traditional micro-enterprise development.

“Every woman deserves to be empowered. To have strength and dignity. To know she is valuable. Through this program, the lives of women and their families are being transformed and are receiving hope for a better future. I am excited to be a part of helping my sisters all over the world!” Doree Donaldson | Vice President - Convoy:Women

Why We Are Unique: $

Seed capital is a gift, not a loan. We give gifts in the form of equipment rather than money. Every aspect of a woman’s life is addressed, from personal issues to small-business training. We provide ongoing support for a woman after she starts her business to ensure her success.
