    Fundraising Champion: $100 Capital for 100 Women in Ebonyi, Nigeria

    MARYPAT LOVE & CARE FOUNDATION – Org #106432 – GlobalGiving Top-Ranked, Vetted, Effective – Superstar 122 Points

    Empower 100 widows and vulnerable women in Ebonyi State, Nigeria with $100 small business capital each.

    In Ebonyi State (Abakaliki, Izzi, Ezza North & South), many widows have not smiled in years. Some are widows with 5-7 children. Others have husbands alive but incapacitated – stroke, blindness, paralysis – unable to farm. The woman becomes sole provider.

    Their Grown Daughters Are Jobless: Tailoring graduates have NO sewing machine. Bakery graduates have NO oven. Trading sons have no goods.

    MARYPAT LOVE & CARE FOUNDATION (CAC IT 184979 | UNP 68571) has self-funded support for 700+ women. Now we need to scale.

    Our Solution – Direct Economic Empowerment:

    $100 = Business capital for 1 mother

    $180 = Sewing machine for 1 trained daughter

    $200 = Bakery oven + startup for 1 daughter

    GOAL: $10,000 for 100 women

    This is Project #78950 on GlobalGiving – http://goto.gg/78950 – Pending Approval – Help us launch!

    Volunteer Role: Fundraising Champion – We need volunteers worldwide who can:

    • Share our donation link with networks, churches, WhatsApp groups
    • Post our campaign on social media
    • Help us find donors and sponsors

    Every $100 = 1 mother empowered. Every $30 = 1 child back to school. SDGs: No Poverty | Gender Equality | Decent Work
