EMPOWERMENT AND SUPPORT
PROBLEM
Many Tanzanian women face challenges such as discrimination, domestic violence, rape, lack of feminine hygiene care, and struggle to make an income. They do not have anyone to share these problems with and many women become depressed or experience anxiety. In addition, it is difficult for women to afford transportation to the court to defend their cases.
HOW WE HELP
The Dare Women's Foundation brings women together for community gatherings and to work on entrepreneurship ventures. Dare Women's Groups have been established in a number of villages -- together, women create organic gardens, learn new skills and support one another, their families and their communities. We also provide counseling and psychologists to women in need. When women have a strong support group, they can empower each other to stand up against discrimination.
