The woman you see here represents a group of 29 women who recently visited our office at the Kigezi Orphans Project. They requested a modest amount—just $100—to help them purchase materials for making soap. We were glad to support them with this amount through our Amazima Community Farmers Initiative.
Today, they are successfully producing soap to support their children and families. Yesterday, she visited our school to proudly share samples of their products. They are now seeking additional support to acquire a soap cutting machine and a measurement scale to improve both the quality and quantity of their production.
This is a shining example of how small actions can spark meaningful change. Together, we can continue to support and grow this budding cottage industry.
