goal
Please Help South Asia's abused and neglected widows. Here's where your funds go:
Vocational training, such as tailoring classes, gives widows a sustainable way to provide for their families.
In a place where many women are illiterate, women's literacy classes for widows keep them from being forced to sign unfair contracts or charged extra at the market.
Practical gifts like water filters and blankets help widows with immediate needs of getting clean water and keeping her children warm.
Upon becoming a widow in in some developing nations, a woman is often blamed for her husband's death and enters a life of shame. Burdened with the responsibility to care for her children alone, she is often forced into begging or even prostitution.
You donation will help GFA give widows a means of renewable income, like a sewing machine or farm animals. You'll also help with daily essentials, like blankets and water filters.
This support will be given through the local church, giving widows a chance to learn about the love of Jesus Christ.
