Vision
Sustainable Healthy and poverty free Communities
Our vision is that through uplifting township communities and eradicating poverty, people can become self-sustaining and communities can truly be economically independent. Our projects have and emphasis on HIV/AIDS victims, women young children and youth
.Mission
Give communities the tools to eradicate poverty
It is our mission to establish programs, educate and train people within historically disadvantaged communities and ultimately give them access to the economy. People from disadvantaged township communities must be able to manage and overcome chronic diseases, poverty and unemployment no matter their race or gender. In order to do so we focus on training for HIV/AIDS victims, women, young children and youth, and access to primary healthcare for the community.
Goals
Strengthen community involvement in health promotion and social economic development.
Our strategy is best visualized by our Women of Wonder Cycle which exists of four elements, being develop, produce, reinvest, and trade.
Our initial involvement in each project will purely be focused on the development of this community.
We will develop the community by implementing educational and healthcare related projects.
These projects will be an answer to direct needs within the community.
When our beneficiaries have access to quality education and healthcare, we aim to give them access to the economy through production or employment.
Crucial aspects of production are relevant training and enterprise & supplier development (ESD).
Within 12 months after the initiation of the production our beneficiaries within our ESD will start trading.
This should directly will lead to a solid income for our beneficiaries, which makes them self- sustaining.
The last part of our cycle is the part that makes it sustainable.
The beneficiaries through their businesses or jobs now have a solid income and can pay for services as healthcare, training and education.
This is how they then reinvest in their own community.
HIV/AIDS is a critical factor in increasing the pressure of social and economic disintegration in our area. It has a disproportionate impact on the black urban poor, vastly increasing poverty when combined with high unemployment, low household incomes, breakdown of traditional support systems and lower access to services.
Enterprise & Supplier Development (ESD): as a large part of our exit strategy and sustainability plan
ESD plays a critical role within our community development model. Within our communities we would like to start business hubs to promote entrepreneurship and ensure that unemployed youth can start their own businesses.
Within our hubs we want to have an element of employment, start-up incubation, and small business development and procurement services.
Our goal is to uplift communities and truly eradicate poverty amongst the historically disadvantaged. The name Women of Wonder indicates that these women will do wonders and give back to their communities by bringing a positive change.
Our main target areas are several township communities and Mnquma rural communities. Our first two main communities are UMsobomvu and Cuba in Eastern Cape at Butterworth.
However, in 2022 we started working in deep rural in partnership with Xhosa Kingdom and With Chief Mntoto at Cafuntweni doing HIV/AIDS Champaign and TB Awareness &Prevention.
