HOW IT WORKS

CHOOSE YOUR GIVING TIER

We've seen first-hand the incredible impact of our graduates, how their powerful voices and skills influence those around them. Stand with women survivors of war by committing to a monthly gift. Whatever size donation you can make will have a lasting impact. 

Become a Classroom Supporter

Starting from £12 a month. From pencils and textbooks to agricultural supplies, your gift as a classroom supporter will ensure that sisters across our programmes have the resources they need to participate in and complete their training. 

Become a Sister Supporter

Starting from £22 a month. You'll get matched with a woman in our Stronger Women, Stronger Nations programme. You'll learn her name, her country and you'll even have the opportunity to send her messages of support through our online Supporter Portal. 

STRONGER WOMEN, STRONGER NATIONS PROGRAMME

WHAT THE WOMEN WILL LEARN DURING THE ONE YEAR

Vocational Skills: Earning an income

Your gift helps women survivors of war learn a vocational skill such as tailoring, brickmaking or agriculture. These skills are highly prized in their local market, so they can earn a stable income and become more independent. This is supplemented with literacy and numeracy training, including bookkeeping and budgeting, which helps them build businesses to support their families.

Rights: Use her voice

Women have fundamental rights that are often overlooked. Even women themselves are often unaware of these rights. Your sisters have a right to vote, to own land, to divorce, and to inherit property. With your contributions, your sisters will learn about gender equality, their rights and the laws that protect them from violence and discrimination.

Health & Wellbeing: Better nutrition means stronger communities

If women aren't physically and mentally healthy, how can they be expected to thrive and contribute to their community? Your sisters will learn about family planning, hygiene, disease prevention, resilience and nutrition to keep themselves and their loved ones healthy.

Support Networks: A community of women learning and growing together

Imagine not feeling safe enough to leave your home. Imagine not having access to friends or community spaces where you could take some comfort in sharing your collective experiences. Sisters are joined together in groups of 25, breaking the isolation caused by war and creating a space of mutual support.
