We believe the right kind of change happens when people are empowered specially when women are empowered. Therefore, with every donation, we work towards empowering girls and women with the hope of long-term growth for communities all over Afghanistan. We define women’s economic empowerment (WEE) as the transformative process that helps women and girls move from limited power, voice, and choice at home and in the economy to having the skills, resources, and opportunities needed to compete equitably in markets as well as the agency to control and benefit from economic gains.

We also believe that women’s economic empowerment is beneficial not only for individual women but also for their children, households, and communities
