Introduction
The only way we can tackle all the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals is through training, investment and job creation and this is what is at the heart of this project. 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.
Report
Often these women have a great business idea but with no means of funding it themselves, the government is also often not an option due to lack of funding. We will provide these women with grants to get a head start in their business and instead of paying high-interest rates on a loan they instead can give back to the project to help the next woman. We are launching a new development center for women in a township in Cape Town on the 1st October.
