Equality Approach Uganda

Maranatha Family women VSLA section during their account reconciliation. The women were empowered to start small and many continue to testify of their inability to value themselves, due over reliance on external support, undermining shoddy jobs, poor attitudes towards men view of an income earning woman and more so illiteracy.

With joint efforts, fears of all kinds were broken and starting in second quarter of the year, the group of 25 women earning through digging community gardens, housekeeping, market vending, small retail shopping and hawking items of various types were able to shave US$. 1,954 and raising interest from internal lending US$. 287, which they were able to share to motivate those who supported in leadership, borrowing and saving. They closed the saving year on Sunday with thanksgiving to God.

They look at empowering more care givers in the year 2024.

After a heavy day of work and sacrifices our care givers of Maranatha Family women empowerment community Based organization, share their savings.
The group is one of the 4 registered Equality Approach Uganda initiated CBO in Wakiso district that is aimed at the empowerment of the elderly, PWDs and their caregivers.
