What We Do: Our Program

Since 2012 we have been empowering women through our 12-month sewing and business skills-training program. Thanks to YOU, we've been able to provide life-changing skills to 316 women, impacting 1038 children. So far our impact has been wide.

Now we're going deep, with the same goal to empower women through education + economic opportunity. We have Entrepreneur Co-ops in the Lusaka area and in rural villages. We are committed to:

  • Identifying the thriving CiH grads/entrepreneurs to join a co-op comprised of various businesses, from tailoring to chicken farming

  • Providing one-on-one business training and mentorship to these entrepreneurs

  • Issuing business grants to the co-op to advance their businesses from micro-enterprises to medium-level businesses, employing other women and growing profits significantly

  • Encouraging group savings models, already a cultural practice, to grow businesses sustainably

Entrepreneurship Seminars

We facilitate Entrepreneurship Seminars for our Clothed in Hope women and through partnerships with like-minded organizations.

These multi-day seminars are designed to teach aspiring and current micro-entrepreneurs about small business management, from profit maximization to marketing and much more. We have seen great success in the lives of women entrepreneurs who utilize our proprietary Entrepreneurship Curriculum to take their businesses to the next level for the benefit of their families and communities.
