Empowering Local Leaders
Overwhelming circumstances call for overwhelming compassion.
Our community leaders are women. They are mothers. First and foremost on their mind is the care and safety of their children. We cannot address other issues until these basics are provided.
Once these are secured, there is room to dream, to create and to breathe. What are the basic needs that must be provided?
Food, shelter, clothing. When we can help provide these, it relieves women of the responsibility that often rests squarely on their shoulders.
Changing the
narrative one woman at a time
We believe mothers should be seen as heroes in their own stories. We share resources, experiences, wisdom, and stories. We share songs and cultures and meals and belonging. We go to the women and mothers who are most vulnerable, who are suffering in cycles of poverty and violence.
