EMPOWERING UPCOMING WOMEN

There comes a time when you look back and what you want to see is how you helped Society to become a better place for those you have gone ahead of. This is what birthed this cozy place where women achievers (who already want to give so much to society) and upcoming women (who need the helping hands of the former) meet for the benefit of the latter. We believe this will help the upcoming or aspiring women to reach their full potential thereby increasing their own livelihoods and their economic contribution to society.

Mission

Devoted to fostering the growth and success of women on their developmental journeys, our mission is to build the capacity of emerging talents, especially those who may be vulnerable. We are dedicated to providing targeted support to upcoming women, ensuring they not only climb the high stratums of their careers and businesses but also access the corridors of power without compromising their dignity. Our commitment extends to those who may face additional challenges, offering a supportive foundation that empowers vulnerable women in society to flourish with resilience and dignity.

Vision

Envisioning a world where every emerging woman, especially those facing vulnerability, is not only empowered to ascend to the height of her career and business but is also supported in accessing the corridors of power without compromising. Our vision is a future where all women, irrespective of their circumstances, are provided the tools, resources and coaching needed to thrive and lead, contributing to a society where every woman’s potential is recognized, celebrated and realized.


Objectives

  1. Create more avenues for young women to achieve their goals towards self-development and enhanced sources of income
  2. Protect vulnerable women from compromising as they seek to develop themselves and create a livelihood
  3. Create a meeting point between women achievers and upcoming women (especially the disadvantaged)
  4. Provide counselling to women who are not so sure of themselves or of what they want to do in life
  5. Eventually close the gender gap at the executive level of corporate leadership/Female business leadership.

All our programmes are geared towards contributing to the attainment of SDG 5: Gender Equality thereby creating a better life for the family as a whole.


Our Core Values

  1. Love for one another: pull others along as you rise
  2. Steward mentality: Do everything as unto the Lord and humanity
  3. Self-respect: Be an example of a virtuous woman
  4. Perseverance: Never give up; keep doing until you succeed
  5. Passionate, disciplined, honest and trustworthy
  6. Inclusiveness: equal opportunities for all
