WHY WOMEN
EMPOWERMENT?

We work to empower vulnerable women by offering strategic programs designed to help women overcome obstacles in caring for their families.

OUR APPROACH

Through long-term partnerships, we support and strengthen vulnerable women and at-risk
families to increase their ability to stay together and thrive in their own community. At Zoe
Ministries, we believe when you empower a woman, you change an entire generation.

We fellowship

We host widow fellowships across four locations in western Kenya for over 60 women every week. These small groups offer a safe and secure place for widows to fellowship, grieve, learn, grow, and ultimately lean on one another.

WE teach & train

Teaching vulnerable women, a skill, such as farming, helps empower and restores dignity to them and their entire family. Through farming fruits and vegetable such as corn, kale, cabbage, sweet potatoes, and bananas, these women can feed their families and sell their excess crops at local markets. On average, these women see a 300% income increase from their small farms. These funds help each woman in our program send their children to school.

WE provide access

We handmake menstrual pads at our Kitale location and our teams distribute them primary in the northwestern region of Kenya. On average, we distribute over 1,000 pads every month to girls in need. As well as delivering our pads to girls in need, our team educates girls and young women on menstrual hygiene management within local schools and communities. Together, we are keeping girls in school.

WE ARE POWERFUL TOGETHER

“I didn’t know how to fully maximize my small piece of land, but with the help of Zoe, my farm now ensures I have food for myself and my grandchildren in all seasons. I’m very grateful.”
– Anna, Small Farm Program Participant

“As we visit other widows and share God’s word, it’s touching how receptive they are, especially to women who are much older. They receive hope and feel love again.”
