“There is no force equal to a woman who is determined to rise”
In collaboration with Ansar Day, the Mission hosted an exhibition cum market day on the first day of the Annual Women Empowerment seminar held from the 22nd February 2015 to the 26th February 2015. This was the second time the Mission hosted such an event since its initiation.
Two members from each BMM Kenya groups and 3 ladies from Nakuru showcased their businesses which are normally conducted in their rural centres.
Different stalls like vegetables/farm fresh, herbals, handicrafts and cloth items were exhibited by the members. The Mission also presented the Live Goat and the Tailoring projects in the exhibition.
Special guests like Mr. J. D Seda from the Ministry of energy and consumption, Mr Mohamed Jaffer, managed to attend the exhibition.
