KIREA is working with organizations on the ground to train, finance, support women and empower them to become self reliant. With the help of the organzations on the ground in India, Nepal, and Kenya, we provide 3 to 6 month training in tailoring and/or embroidary skills.  In addition, some of the women also receive sewing machines to help them start their own businesses. 

KIREA’s project  has helped women earn a living by teaching them how to make baskets out of bamboo sticks and selling them.  They were given the training and the supplies to get started. 

For the last few years we have been working with Mrs. Nafisa Khanbhai, who is a KIREA agent on the ground in Mombasa, Kenya.  In this project, 15 wheelchairs were distributed to those in need in Lamu, a small coastal town near Malindi, Kenya.

KIREA's dairy farming projects help women realize a self employment opportunity and a source of regular income by providing them with dairy cattle and training. The women are trained to look after the animals and milk them daily to generate income by selling the milk locally. Locally sourced building materials are also provided to construct cattle sheds and water tubs for their animals. 

These projects help women to realize a self employment opportunity and a source of regular income by providing them initially with 5 goats and training. The women are also trained to look after the animals and raise them to sell in the local market.
