Women Empowerment

The second half of the year is well underway, and our Women Empowerment project in Villa Ojo de Agua continues to grow stronger, thanks to you!

Since our last update, the energy in our workshops has been incredible. The women are not only advancing in their technical skills, but also building friendships, confidence, and a deep sense of purpose. The “Migus” amigurumis, a llama and a capybara, have become a symbol of that growth. We’re happy to share that we've sold even more units, and with each sale, the project becomes more self-sustaining.

Our community space remains a hub of creativity and connection. While 35 women continue attending workshops weekly, the group of 10 former participants still gathers regularly just to share time together, create, and support one another. These spontaneous, self-organized meetings remind us that what we’re building goes far beyond technical training—we’re nurturing a supportive, lasting sisterhood.

We’re also excited about what’s just around the corner: in September, the women will take part in another entrepreneurship training, once again in partnership with Asociación Civil Mujeres 2000. These sessions are always transformative—offering tools in business planning, sales, and digital marketing tailored to the women’s own needs and realities.

Your support continues to be the foundation of this program. Every new product, every new skill, every new connection... It’s all made possible by your belief in these women and their potential.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Together, we’re not just empowering women, we’re creating a movement rooted in creativity, collaboration, and courage.

With deep gratitude,
The Fundación San Genaro Team
