In the bustling stalls of Orange Market, hundreds of women rise before dawn to set up shop. For many, these modest businesses are their families’ only source of income — paying for food, school fees, and healthcare. Yet, economic shocks, inflation, and unforeseen crises often leave these hardworking women vulnerable, with little safety net to fall back on.
At FracomTech Foundation, we recognize that empowering women is not just about charity — it’s about unlocking the potential of entire communities. Through the Orange Market Women’s Recovery Fund, we provide small grants, business tools, and financial literacy training that help women rebuild and grow their businesses after setbacks. With the right support, these women are not just surviving — they are thriving and lifting others along the way.
