Project Independence

Women Survivors of War

This was the Soroptimist International Quadrennial Project 2004 - 2007 which raised $1,6 million for the work in Afghanistan, Bosnia and Herzegovena and Rwanda.

1692 women were provided with the skills they need to rebuild their lives after war and 650 women were given small business loans. Far more success than anticipated.
