Widows Economic Empowerment

Purpose

To equip widows with the tools and support necessary to break cycles of dependency, grief-induced poverty, and societal marginalization through sustainable economic initiatives.

Why It Matters

In many Kenyan communities, widows are left landless, penniless, and voiceless after the death of a spouse. Their economic potential is untapped. Society often reduces them to burdens — we see them as seeds of strength.

Objectives

  • Restore self-worth and agency among widows.
  • Facilitate the creation of sustainable income-generating activities.
  • Build a supportive network of economically empowered women.
