In order to enable women pursue their ambition in business and revive entrepreneurial spirit, Living Encouraged (LE), last weekend, trained 50 women in vocational skills as well as donated cash to seven widows while it equally set up a young lady with beauty salon equipment in Egbe-Ikotun community.
The convener of the initiative, a Nigerian in diaspora, Rosemary Akaette, explained her mission to economically empower women was for them to be financially independent.
Akaette stated that empowerment will be a continuous activity that would positively impact women and their families, her concern is to make them self-reliant, productive and effectively play their role as wives, mothers, sisters, and daughters in their various homes and the community at large.
