Covenant World Relief provided funding to start a new tailoring business in Kenya that has three full time employees. Your gifts provided the start-up funding for this business that empowers at-risk and marginalized men and women in a violence-prone community in Kenya. Each of the employees do everything from designing and weaving to tailoring. They produce quality clothing to satisfy their growing demand. The partnership with Covenant World Relief has allowed them to start a retail consumer goods shop which inspires entrepreneurs. This opportunity has raised the living standards of the people employed by it.<\/p>\n
