Introduction
The current unemployment rate in South Africa is 29% and the pandemic has exacerbated the problem with more and more jobs being lost on a daily basis. This project aims to identify aspiring local entrepreneurs who want to set-up a business and give themselves a sustainable income source..
Report
A gift to this project helps our women take the first step to a future as a female entrepreneur. This helps tackle the inequality of gender across Africa. This will aid in reducing dependency on foreign aid and create sustainable economic growth and empower locals to take control over their future. In addition, the project will contribute to skills development and provide job opportunities which will break the cycle of poverty. A donation of $10 will provide enough material for one of our graduates to produce 4 items to sell at the local market to kick start her business.
