Project #20 | Women's Economic Empowerment in Peru

Our partnership with Krochet Kids

ODW’s partnership with KKi helped provide the initial start up costs for a brand new project in Lima, Peru. The $21,000 raised through this collaboration provided the wages and workshop space for a group of 10 vulnerable women.Through an innovative program, they offer women the assets, skills, and knowledge to pull themselves out of poverty. By taking part in their rehabilitative program, women are instantly able to provide for their immediate needs, while also taking part in essential career training that will be the foundation of a successful future. The funding of this project was used as the kick-start that launched their program in Peru into a sustainable cycle of employment and empowerment for many years to come.
