The Pathway to Economic Freedom
Economic freedom is key to breaking the cycle of poverty. At Open Arms, we believe that equipping individuals with valuable skills is the most sustainable way to achieve this. Through our Skills Acquisition Program, we provide training in trades such as carpentry, tailoring, and agriculture, which directly translate into income-generating opportunities.
For example, Joseph, a participant in our program, learned modern farming techniques that not only boosted his crop yield but also enabled him to employ others in his community. He now runs a successful small business, selling fresh produce to nearby markets, and has become a role model for other young people in his village.
By creating job opportunities and fostering entrepreneurship, our Skills Acquisition Program empowers individuals to take control of their futures. The skills they learn provide them with the economic freedom to support their families, contribute to their communities, and drive local development.
