Many women who attend our program are housewives who did not get a chance to complete their education due to early marriage and conservative families. Some have been dropouts after primary education and are hugely dependent on their families. Most women want to learn English to get jobs, connect with those outside their community, or even be able to teach their children English. Our women’s empowerment volunteer program is focused on skill building, women’s education, and confidence building. Through the skills they learn, women will develop confidence, a new identity, the ability to get jobs or earn higher income, and secure a better future for themselves.
