Giving Mothers the Skills to Build a Better Future
Across refugee settlements, thousands of single mothers struggle every day to provide food, education, healthcare, and shelter for their children. Many have lost their homes, livelihoods, and support systems because of conflict and displacement.
At Fands Foundation, we believe that empowering a mother means transforming an entire family.
Through this project, we aim to equip refugee and displaced single mothers with practical vocational and business skills that enable them to earn a sustainable income, become financially independent, and create a brighter future for their children.
