Thanks for taking a minute to read this. I need your help to make this goal to help orphans and widows in Rwanda.
Would you consider making a donation today and then sharing this with your friends and associates too? I’ve been to Rwanda and spent time with these young people. I know this business will make a huge difference in their lives!
LET’S DO THIS – 20 people giving $50 each makes it happen. Or, hey 10 people giving $100. Change a life- for real.
And, if this gets you excited, you can join in and set up your own link to send to your friends yourself. With your help this bakery becomes a reality.
***MATCHING FUNDS CHALLENGE*** -- every dollar you give will be doubled!

Since the aftermath of the Rwandan Genocide, the women and girls of the Togetherness Cooperative have supported each other as sisters and mentors. In their rural community, there are few jobs for women, and most live on less than $1 a day.
These women and girls seek skills to break the cycle of poverty and empower themselves for life.
That’s where you come in.
With your help, African Road will bring a bakery business to the women of Togetherness. The bakery will provide:
- Jobs for women
- Training
- Nutrition
- Business skills
- Financial skills
- Sustainable income for the entire cooperative
- A brand new, state-of-the-art bakery building!!! Pictured below.
Will you help to start the Women’s Bakery? Donate $50 or an amount of your choice to African Road today. Your tax-deductible gift will help to open The Women’s Bakery and empower these women for life.
***GREAT NEWS -- every dollar you give will be matched!*** Donate today and your gift will go twice as far to help us reach our goal!
African Road's work goes beyond starting a bakery. We are working with communities throughout East Africa to help break the cycle of poverty.
Consider a recurring gift to African Road -- be a part of the bigger story!
