JALI-FOUNDATION
OUR PURPOSE
Our mission at Jali Foundation is to empower Kenya and Tanzania growing number of young, single mothers to become self-sufficient and able to educate and support their families.
Kijiji Mission – Empower Kenyan and Tanzanian Women through Education
Kijiji Mission, a project of Jali Foundation provides vocational training to Kenyan and Tanzanian women who are striving to become self-sufficient and provide for their families’ basic needs. The majority of the women in this program are young, single mothers who are struggling to feed their families. The women undergo an extensive one-year tailoring course.
Once a woman graduates from the program she receives a small business loan allowing her to purchase her own treadle sewing machine. She is then able to start her own tailoring business and earn an income that can provide food, education and basic necessities for her family.
