Our Mission: To organize, support, and work with single mothers to overcome social-economic and psychological challenges associated with their status in life

Why empower a single mother

There is arising number of single mothers and hence an increased number of vulnerable children. According to research done by SPAU in 2004, 50% families are single parent households with majority consisting of single mothers and their children. Through single mother support, we extend support to these vulnerable children who are our future and better our communities. Please join us to support single mothers, children and our communities.
