Who you help with your purchase:
In Iraq: You are helping women who have been through unthinkable situations. The women sponsored through WfW enter a one-year program, which includes rights awareness training, literacy and skills training, as well as emotional assistance to recover and heal from the atrocities they have experienced. Upon completion of the program, they receive seed money to begin their own small businesses, so that they may continue to sustain themselves and their families. Prosperity Candle was one of these opportunities.
In the US: Our shipping department is staffed entirely by women who are in need in the US, women who have had to escape violent situations in their homes. These women have children who are also benefitting from their mothers being able to care for them while working.
