Our Services

Our second level of the FGM campaign (the first level being the Art exhibition as a way of creating awareness and a platform for advocating laws ) is calling for International Action to equip Nigerian women and girls towards economic self- sufficiency.

Micro credit scheme

 

WICSA’s ultimate goal is to combat poverty on a global level working with clients one at a time. Poverty is multi dimensional in nature especially across geographical regions. For the African market and other developing world, poverty is described by the United Nations (2008, Millennium Development Goals) as those living under $1.00 or less a day. Whatever the parameter for defining poverty, WICSA is poised to work with any woman who desires to improve her existing small business or own one.

 

WICSA looks at poverty from the lack of economic resources standpoint; therefore our efforts would be geared towards economic empowerment by offering training classes as well as micro loans to low incomes women, existing female small business owners and prospective ones.

   We would like to partner with organizations and individuals that can provide ideas, schemes and grants towards attaining self- sufficiency through the establishment of micro credit scheme. The micro credit scheme is being developed to take off soon. Please check back periodically for progress on the micro credit programs.

  • Empowering the woman....

    WICSA believes that if we can teach a woman to fish, we will feed her for life, but give her fish for a meal and we feed her for one day
