Our organization proudly hosted “She Rises – Women’s Skills & Startup Fair”, a dynamic platform created to empower disadvantaged women by showcasing their talents, small businesses, and entrepreneurial spirit.

The event brought together over 200 women from our skill development and vocational training programs. These incredible women exhibited handmade products, homegrown services, and creative talents that reflected not only their skills but their determination to rise above adversity.

Showcasing Skills, Celebrating Growth

The fair featured stalls of handcrafted goods, home-cooked food, natural beauty products, clothing, and more. Visitors interacted with the women, heard their stories, and made purchases—offering not just support, but dignity and encouragement.

Pitch. Inspire. Empower.

A key highlight of the event was our Mini Business Pitch Contest, where selected participants presented their small business ideas to a panel of mentors, entrepreneurs, and local investors. Winners received seed funding and mentorship opportunities to kickstart or expand their ventures.

Real Connections, Real Impact

We partnered with local business owners, digital platforms, and micro-financing institutions, who engaged with the women on-site—offering insights, networking opportunities, and financial advice. This direct exposure to business ecosystems marked a transformative step for many first-time entrepreneurs.

A Step Toward Self-Reliance

“She Rises” wasn’t just a fair—it was a statement. A celebration of women who are building better futures for themselves and their families. The smiles, confidence, and pride on their faces were the true measure of success.

We are grateful to all partners, volunteers, and attendees who helped create a space where women didn’t just showcase what they’ve learned—they owned it.
