Our Goals and Objectives
• To help alleviate property through empowering women and girls to attain higher education.
• To train women in methods of improved living conditions and better lifestyles of their families through educational and improved agricultural practices.
• To offer unique volunteer trips to developing countries that allow volunteers to participate in relief of poverty through education, better agriculture, health practices and income activities.
We envision a world where women understand their rights and have access to quality health, education and economic stability.
