We were contacted recently about designing a postcard for www.alarm-inc.org for Women of Faith Microfinance Project.
Our main contact person for this project was Amy Goddard of Goddard Orthopedic & Sportstherapy in Coppell, Texas. After discussing the project specifics with Amy, and realizing the importance of its message, SHD has decided to gladly donate it's portion of work on the postcard design. We are happy to be a part of this, and hope that it is very successful.
We are including the text from this project below;
African Women Initiatives (AWI) is a ministry of ALARM that exists to empower African women by undergirding their initiatives for leadership development, economic development, and self–sufficiency through formal and informal education, entrepreneurial activities, technical expertise, capital investment, and micro–finance loans/grants.
The Women Coordinators in each of the eight African countries where ALARM is active oversee women's and children's ministries in each country. AWI is the beginning of a new partnership with US women who will support the Country Coordinators and assist them in providing the necessary resources that will ensure the success of more projects. Join us in changing a continent.
