Karen feels so blessed because of YOU!
At the age of 60, Karen should be able to rest and rely on her children to care for her.
Instead, she is raising three of her orphaned grandchildren. She was in desperate need of help.
Then she discovered the Grandmother Project!
In her Granny Group, she found the support she needed to build a better life for her family.
She was given gardening tools, a micro-finance loan to start a business, and entrepreneurial training to help her run her business successfully.
Now she is making money to support her family, strengthening the local economy, and being a positive role model for her grandchildren and other women in her community.
Please don’t take it lightly when we say
YOU Change Lives.
Tomorrow, please help us give more grandmothers like Karen the help they desperately need.
Join us for a special Bonus Day!
