(PLEASE NOTE: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there will be a delay in assigning sponsored women’s groups from our new program area in Sunsari. This includes new as well as returning sponsors. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns.)
By sponsoring a women’s group, you open doors for an entire community.
Educate the Children helps women to improve their own lives, claim a space in the public sphere, and create positive change in their communities. Women’s groups are the heart of social change. Through monthly meetings and a variety of relevant training opportunities, members form close bonds that strengthen as they gain skills and confidence. Over time, groups merge to form legally recognized and long-lasting cooperatives that take on the work of ongoing social and economic development. These activities and organizations, led by local women, fuel community-wide economic growth and well-being long after Educate the Children has phased out of the area and begun to do the same work in a new area.
