Global Business Partners
WGC is collaborating with women’s cooperatives in developing countries that are supporting women to address the effects of poverty through micro-enterprise. Each of these local cooperatives has a policy that provides for women helping other women, through pay back or pay forward practice, this insuring that monies received benefit many women. Our current partners are Women's Global Network- San Diego (WGN-SD), partnering with Bukoba Women's Empowerment Association (BUWEA) in Bukoba, Tanzania, and Women's Global Network-Dallas (WGC-Dallas), partnering with Masupanzila Women's Empowerment Association in Mongu, Zambia.
You can create a partnership with an entrepreneur in a developing country and this will help her start her own micro-business as well as strengthen her capacity to sustain her enterprise. With a grant of $200 you can become a Global Business Partner.
You can also donate seed money to a woman beginning a small home-based economic project. Click here for the possibilities in our Alternative Giving Program.
