Malaika4wc Vzw
Is a non-profit organization that was founded in Aug 2020 by Marijke, Marc & Jan.
Our goal is to help vulnerable women, and through them also their children, on their way to a better life.
In Kampala, for example, many vulnerable women and their children live in appalling conditions.
We want to change that by, among other things, setting up a sewing workshop.
Through a "Teach the teacher" formula we want to teach women to sew, crochet and knit so that they can eventually work as independent seamstresses.
This way we give women the opportunity to generate their own income and also support their children.
With their own income they can feed their children better and send them to school.
Due to the Covid-19 epidemic, our projects abroad have been temporarily suspended. However, we are still making further plans and saving for the future so that after this crisis we can look for new accommodation for our sewing workshop and continue where we left off.
