2015 EARTHQUAKE RAVAGES NEPAL! On April 25th 2015, a magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck central Nepal, killing over 8000 people. Another 23,000 people were injured and hundreds of thousands were left homeless. A second devastating earthquake hit the country on 12 May.
Women had been marginalized long before their country suffered a devastating earthquake, however, Nepalese women have borne a disproportionate burden in its aftermath.
2017 MAKING A DIFFERENCE! We believe in fair trade and ethical business partnerships and truly believe in giving back to our world community. Programs are in place in Nepal to encourage women to enter the workforce and enhance their professional/ business skills. Organizations such as UN Women, and Federation of Business and Professional Women Nepal are working to see that the status and position of women from any background are socio-economically empowered. Involvement in Community Micro Enterprise Development Programs in rural and urban areas of Kathmandu are also serving to Empower women.
