The pictures above shows some recipient of the little effort from Sharing Awareness. These women are Mrs Beatrice and Mrs Happiness. The money was meant to support their small scale business.

The empowerment was greeted with joy and report reaching us shows that they are praying for God’s blessing on our School.
However, there is need to empower more people in this community especially women and youths. Some of them are taking to crimes due to poverty, lack of education and no meaningful venture where they can engage themselves.

Ugwaku is a community in Okigwe Local Government Area of Imo State, Nigeria with inhabitants of about 12,000 people. The majority of the people in this community are farmers and it is mostly women who are involved in subsistence farming. Women and Children are the major populated group in the community. Statistically, majority are still struggling to have basic necessities of life thus it became important that some empowerment program should be created to support the suffering women in this community.

Finally, may we thank you for your kind generosity to the good people of Ugwaku community.
