Self- and Economic Empowerment

The Relief Organization “Together for Children Organization” follows the principle of “Sustainable Help for Self-Reliance.” The Organization supports people in need through its sustainable development projects and by promoting independent service and production enterprises, enabling these individuals to sustainably provide for themselves and their families.

Therefore, the Organization “Together for Children Organization” aims to achieve this goal through projects for self-empowerment and economic empowerment in various sectors such as agriculture, animal husbandry, crafts, fishing, transportation, and other essential areas.

In this context, the Organization included in its development plan the implementation of training courses in skilled trades for employable individuals in need. In addition, the Organization provides independent craftsmen in service and production enterprises with the necessary work materials, tools, and equipment. This includes a range of trades such as carpentry, blacksmithing, plumbing, painting, tailoring, hairdressing, simple crafts, mobile phone repair, electrical work, and other skilled professions.

• Under the livestock project, farm animals (sheep and cows) were distributed.

• In the trade sector, families received children’s and women’s clothing.

• Families were also supported with essential household items such as refrigerators, washing machines, stoves, air conditioners, blankets, and mattresses.

The project was funded by the Hasene International Organization, and 40 families of disabled, poor, and needy individuals benefited from it.
