Penduka’s production facility, the heart of our work in empowering women through skills development and income-generating opportunities, is in urgent need of repair. After years of exposure to the elements, the roof has become unsafe and unsustainable—putting both our operations and the safety of the women we support at risk.
We are working hard to raise the necessary funds to replace the roof before the next rainy season at the end of 2025. But we cannot do it alone.
We’re reaching out to friends of Penduka—our supporters, visitors, partners, and global community—to join us in this effort. Every contribution, big or small, brings us closer to securing a safe and functional space for the women who rely on Penduka for training, employment, and opportunity.
