Where can you make an Impact?
This can be a one time or monthly gift that funds someone in a dire, urgent, life threatening situation due to lack of food, medication, and/or safe housing.
All funds given here go towards stabilizing someone in a difficult or dire situation.
This is a big need!
This fund is to build an infrastructure that would support the vision of a sustainable in-country hub.
This project includes:
•Purchasing 4+ hectares of land
•Building a solar powered well for clean water
•Space to grow their own food
•Creating a conference & training center with a kitchen and bathroom
• Building 4 guest homes for students and urgent housing needs.
Once this hub is purchased and built, we will teach sustainability with agriculture, business training, discipleship, sewing & trade schools.
“As you lift up a woman, you lift up humanity”
– Melinda Gates
This where we are pouring into the women of Burkina Faso to empower them to help themselves, their families, community, and ultimately change the culture for good.
These are our empowerment programs:
•No fee -no interest micro loan program **
•Business training
•Sewing school & Other trade programs
•HealthCare & Period Pad training
•Agricultural programs
**Help a woman start her own business. We offer short term, long term, and educational loans.
Once paid off, 100% of the original loan is then rolled over to fund the next woman. This means your donation will KEEP ON GIVING for many years to come! To ensure each woman succeeds, we work with them for up to 2 years after their loan is paid off.
We never tell a woman what type of business they should start. Many businesses such as soap making, breeding, hair stylists, ice makers, and more have succeeded through this program!
*please note if you have a preference for your donation to go to any one of these programs
We always fund the most urgent needs first. This is our most versatile option, and is perfect if you wish to support all of our needs, whatever they may be.
This can be a one time or monthly gift that funds someone in a dire, urgent, life threatening situation due to lack of food, medication, and/or safe housing.

In country sustainable Micro Loan Program
This is a no fee, no interest loan program. We offer short term, long term, and educational loans.

Did you know we have OVER 300 WOMEN in our program?
35% of our loans are directly funded by donors like you!
The other 65% of these loans are funded by ROLLOVER funds!
Business Training
Prior to starting a business, we offer 4-day long business training programs, as well as a
mentorship program with 5 of our employees in Burkina Faso. We help these women
write their business plan, we find the funding to start their business, and we work with them
through the entirety of their loan.
Government Certified Sewing School Program
We currently have 30 women enrolled in our Sewing School. It is a 2-3 year long program
depending on their education level and ability to pass the government certification test.
During School, the students have an in-service project where they make period pads for their
community. Once they graduate, they are equipped to either run their own business,
work for the government, or provide tailoring services to their community.
Health Program
We have started a Period Pad Project in 5 villages where we educate women on their
health, their bodies, and the importance of their identity in Christ.
Now partnered with "Days for Girls", we provide sex education, health care training, pads, and
underwear to women who otherwise wouldn't have access to any of these resources.
Agricultural Program
These women are only provided with dry land, and none of the tools or resources required to maintain it.
They are expected to produce food with nothing. We help them by plowing their fields,
and by providing the seed, fertilizer, and water sources to help them feed their families.
Water Pumps
To provide the water sources for the Agricultural Program, we need wells and pumps.
We test to find water, drill, and install pumps to set up the irrigation systems for many women.
