About Zawadisha

Zawadisha arms women with access to capital and the life-saving tools they need to lift themselves out of poverty. Our model is building a stronger world, one in which women are self-sufficient, successful and stand on their own two feet.

Zawadisha means “to give a gift” and we believe the greatest gift we can give women is a hand up in fighting poverty. The gift they give us in return is that we know we truly have changed the life of another human being. And that exchange is powerful.
