At Hope Soars Foundation for Widows (H.S.F.W):
Taking care of widows and their children is a treasured commitment that we have been holding dear for over ten years, and, we do this regardless of our beneficiaries' beliefs, religion and political view among other things.
We believe the empowered woman can achieve so much, especially on a continent like ours, where, not much opportunity is given to the average female child let alone a widow whose late husband's families are quick to take away everything the late man has worked for with little to no regard for how the woman and her children survival afterwards. And so instead of complaining about the unequalled playing field, we decided to aspire to make a difference every single day one widow at a time nationwide.
Whenever the opportunity to selflessly serve arise, we offer 100% free skills acquisition, medical checkups and free medicines and eyeglasses, wheelchair or crutches for widows or their immediate family members who need them, seed capital to skilled trainees, strive to purchase tools children of our widows will need for their learned skills so they won't feel less privileged and so on.
