The Power of Women and Mothers

12 May

When we meet women who’ve acquired our tools, one of the first questions we ask them is, “How did you spend your new income?” Universally, across all countries, continents, religions and cultures, women tell us that they invested their income in caring for their children.

We may provide them with the opportunity, but it’s the mothers who decide to invest in their children’s education, their health and nutrition. And that is why we sincerely believe that a mother’s love is key to ending hunger and poverty.

Watch Kathleen Graham, CTI volunteer, international development consultant, and a mom, speak about amazing women she’s seen generate peace and development in their communities.
