Covid Relief: Food + Shelter for Unemployed Women
Organization information
Studio Samuel Foundation
Location: Forest Hills, United States of America
Summary
100 women in our microloan program are out of work due to isolation guidelines in Ethiopia, meaning resources for food and rent no longer exist. Many are the sole breadwinners for their households, as they support extended family members under one roof. These homes have little to no safety net and have immediately lost all resources for basic needs. Added to this are the health risks of living in close quarters at a time it is critical to social distance.
