Are you ready to turn your hobbies into a business?
We drive you to a developing area in the west of Nairobi. Then you visit the Women's Empowerment Centre, a program to help struggling mothers undertake skills training so they can open small businesses. Not so long ago these women had very little hope and many have suffered discrimination and been ostracized by their families and were forced into homelessness.
But with the support of One Horizon, and the travellers who visit them, the centre helps them get back on their feet by providing rent-free housing and vocational training, as well as lifestyle skills that focus on building confidence and rejuvenating body and soul. They become independent as small business owners and crucially, are able to feed, financially support, and keep their families together. The women’s inspirational stories will teach you about family life in Kenya, the practice of marrying multiple spouses, the dynamics of being a single parent, and the relationship between Kenyan mothers and their children.
