Project Description
The plight of widows is a hidden issue in many developing countries. Millions of widows and their children have become the poorest of the poor, often invisible, forgotten and unheard. The challenges faced by widows have largely been invisible to law makers and the public in general. Their children also have to endure poverty, loss of schooling, child labor, and other forms of deprivation.
EMPOWER A WIDOW TO EMPOWER A COMMUNITY
AtTayeb recognizes the challenges widows face and the vital role they play in their families now that they are on their own. Together, we can empower them to support themselves by providing them with vocational training and work opportunities.

As the only providers of their families, widows are responsible for caring for their children as well as their own well-being without the help of a partner. AtTayeb facilitates programs that ensure widows have food, shelter and necessities for them and their orphaned children.
We also provide vocational training for widows to develop skills they can use to attract revenue and help others. Your contributions can help our resilient women learn sewing, soap production, food production and hair dressing.
Your support can also help sustain a widow and her children in the meantime. Providing food baskets or sponsoring one of her orphans helps ease her worries while she gets her life back on track.
A widow is the backbone of her community – when you support her, you support a greater community. Find out how you can help today.
