Empowering Family Business
The Family Business Program is family empowerment through entrepreneurship. When families enter the program, they walk through a 7-step process toward launching their own business.
Why Family Empowerment
Around the world, the family unit plays a key role in the stability of the local society—a fact that is especially true in developing nations. Another fact is this: communities whose economies are struggling at the very local level often see high levels of children without parental care. These children are left to fend for themselves because parents are often unable to provide for them. They may be taken to orphanages in the hope that they’ll have a better life, be educated, and have a higher chance of survival. This is a situation that no parent should ever have to face.
Our Proven Solution
The Family Business Program seeks to change this reality. By walking alongside each family as they take significant, proven steps, the narrative is shifted; it helps keep families together. It helps them directly thrive in their community, but more than that – it ripples outward into the entire community itself. As more and more families are empowered, the outlook of the entire community improves. The local economy strengthens, which leads to more opportunity for everyone.

Testimonials
Empowerment to me is listening to, and honoring those who haven’t been given power and authority in today’s world. The Family Business Program does this in a beautiful way, raising the voices of those who have not been heard. One of the beautiful examples of empowerment that I have ever seen is through a woman named Emebet, who went through the Family Business Program and changed her life!
