WISH for Kibera





WISH for Kibera is a project based in Kenya coming out of the Focus on Africa's Women Organisation (FAWO).  The Project aims to set up women's self help groups in Kibera which is located in Nairobi, Kenya and is the largest slum in Africa.

The overall goal of the project is economic independence for the women. Each self help group will work towards creating and selling traditional jewelry and handicrafts from Kenya. 
Funds for the Project are limited and there is the need for more voluntary participation. The Project aims to create awareness about this initiative and garner support in terms of funds and manpower to ensure successful completion of the project.
