About this Fundraiser

  

My name is Tasfanesh and I am 29 years old. I am a single mother to 2 daughters. Before joining the ladies income generation group I was selling half bananas I found in the waste dump. A large company would discard these bananas because part of the banana was bad. I would pick these bananas from the dump, cut off the bad half of the banana and sell the other half. I would wait on the side of the road in the hot sun for hours with very few buyers. As a single mother I suffered in many ways. I was struggling to pay rent and feed my children each month on the little money I made selling bananas.Since joining the women's income generation group I am proud, I have learned new skills and I can pay rent and buy food for my family. My life has changed, it is so much better and I am so thankful.

All donations given to Caring for Korah will help to empower women through business education and God's word. It will also allow us to continue to provide fair trade work for the women in our income generation group.
