Our training toolkits are more than nuts and bolts - they can help single mothers, people living with disabilities and many people without access to formal education to build a sustainable future. But it's costing thousands more each year to refurbish, recycle, and ship the tools to our projects.

Situation
The cost of equipping trainees for their future has sky-rocketed. With the cost of living crisis alongside the Red Sea shipping crisis biting into budgets, it is harder than ever to ship quality materials, machines and toolkits to our projects. Shipping costs have escalated dramatically, with a recent shipment to Uganda increasing in cost by 300%. But tools are a vital component of our holistic training model, with proven success in unlocking the potential for a trainee to start a business.
Solution
We provide quality materials with the potential to last a lifetime and serve a community. Our expertly refurbished toolkits and sewing machines are made for vocational training courses, providing vital resources throughout the training period, and equipping a trainee upon graduation. With funding we will continue to ship tools to our project partners, Without toolkits, and with a lack of capital investment, our trainees could become some of the 75% of business that fail in their first 3 months.
