Help Gita Fundraise!
So more women get access to education
Fundraiser for EducationFor her birthday this October, Gita wants to celebrate by fundraising for our Fund an Education program, giving young mothers in Indonesia access to craft education and basic business skills.
“Education does not fix everything. But it allows women to get a glimpse of what’s possible. To see how far they can go. And it is something they will own for the rest of their life.“
- Gita
Why it Matters
The pandemic left women in Indonesia’s villages more vulnerable.
In addition to homeschooling their kids, many women had to step up and become the family’s primary breadwinner.
Yet with limited education, their options are few – forcing them to take on whatever work they could find, at wages that are barely enough to feed their children.
Together with Gita, and your help, we want to change that. Read her story here.
An Education Program – from Java to East Nusa Tenggara
Together with Gita, we want to raise funds to provide free trainings to 60 women– from Central and East Java to Bali and East Nusa Tenggara:
Introduce basic and advanced textile craft skills
Environmentally sound practices like natural dyeing and upcycling
Business skills like costing and pricing
Together with you, we make sure these women know their rights, earn a better livelihood and become more resilient in the face of future challenges.
Unlocking the Power of Craft
Indonesia’s many traditional craft forms are a powerful way for women to earn their own, independent income - while working from home.
Provided with the right knowledge and guaranteed access to market, our trainings will give these women a new sense of pride and independence.
By once again becoming the guardians of Indonesia’s culture, the women earn higher incomes and become more resilient against future challenges.
