Empowering Women for a Sustainable Future: GODEF’s Women Empowerment Initiative

At Global Outreach Development and Empowerment Foundation (GODEF), we believe that empowering women is key to building resilient communities and fostering sustainable development. Through our Women Empowerment Initiative, we are transforming lives by providing vulnerable women with the tools and resources they need to thrive economically and take charge of their households.

Our Initiative: Activities That Drive Change

The Women Empowerment program focuses on empowering women with financial support to start and sustain small businesses.

1. Providing Startup Capital
   GODEF has provided startup capital of 25,000 FCFA to a number of women, enabling them to establish and grow petty businesses. This initiative ensures these women can generate income to support their families, creating a ripple effect of positive change in their communities.

Our Mission: Objectives of the Program

The program is designed to:

• Support Economic Development: By financing and training women, we help them establish sustainable small businesses.

• Empower Communities: Empowered women contribute to stronger households and more resilient communities.

The Impact: Transforming Lives

Our Women Empowerment Initiative has already delivered significant outcomes:

• Improved Household Well-Being: Women supported through this program have enhanced the quality of life in their homes by covering essential needs like food, education, and healthcare.

• Reduced Dependency Ratio: These businesses have reduced financial dependency in the community, boosting economic self-reliance.

• Increased Purchasing Power: With increased income, these women contribute to local economies, driving community growth.

Why Women Empowerment Matters

Empowering women is more than an act of support; it’s a strategy for sustainable development. Women invest in their families, uplift their communities, and create opportunities for future generations.
