Human rights standards in most African countries is never maintained. The peak to this violation is in the prisons. In prisons you have inmates awaiting trial for 20yrs without hope or help on an alleged crime with maximum sentence of 2yrs if convicted. imprisoned children with their convicted mothers are made to take adult drugs(if any) when sick from the hostile, dehumanizing and depressing prison conditions, Poor sanitary state as a result of lack of water and standard sewage system, empty vocational centers in most(painting a challenging future) no special attention or facilities for handicapped or facilities for the mentally ill inmates and many more. As a result of slow judiciary system and law enforcement brutality over 75% of inmates are awaiting trial detainees. which is very alarming and calls for urgent attention.

we recently experienced the continuous influx of teenage girls to prison. Talking with these inmates, propelled our new program POTOW(Pick One Train One Woman) A platform for entrepreneurs to connect with women who desired to learn a skill in their chosen endeavor. This is increasing job opportunities for lots of women. Unemployment, Idleness and lack which use to be the core trigger for compromise that get these women into crime is gradually fading out in the community we have touched. All we do with this program is to prevent crime by engaging, educating and empowering women base on their stories. However we also supply machines to the EMPTY vocational centers of the female section of prisons to stop recidivism.

We seek partners to impact more women!
