Widow Support

EMPOWER A WIDOW TO EMPOWER A COMMUNITY
A widow is the backbone of her community – when you support her, you support a greater community.
Beyond The Pews For Life Africa recognizes the challenges widows face and the vital role they play in their families now that they are on their own. Together, we can empower them to support themselves by providing them with vocational training and work opportunities. Find out how you can help today.

We Believe In Facilitating A Widow’s Independence
As the only providers of their families, widows are responsible for caring for their children as well as their own well-being without the help of a partner. BTPLA facilitates programs that ensure widows have food, shelter and basic necessities for them and their orphaned children.
We also provide vocational training for widows to develop skills they can use to attract revenue and help others. Your contributions can help our resilient women learn sewing, soap production, food production and hairdressing etc. Our workshops teach widows skills that will allow them to attain self-sufficiency and gain control over their lives.
Your support can also help sustain a widow and her children in the meantime. Providing food baskets or sponsoring one of her orphans helps ease her worries while she gets her life back on track.
