Weekends and Bank Holidays can be incredibly tough when you've lost your love and we are thinking of all those who may find it difficult. 💙 We wanted to share some of Claire's words about Sundays and why her weekly Zoom calls have been a lifeline to members.

Did you know that three of our #WISALA beneficiaries from #Tanzania have run for local public office? By running a business, widows are brought back from the margins of public life and make meaningful contributions to their communities. #MakeWidowsMatter

Maaza has no access to a pension and eats breakfast only when there is food available. She works all day as well as supporting her community and family at home.

Women like Maaza deserve more support and recognition. Sign our petition 👉 https://t.co/xL2pav8joB

Being in #business means empowering yourself, your family, your community. #widows tell us your success stories! @FAIRTRADE @UNDP @UwezoFund @Cometogether_Wi @widows4peace #sdg1 #sdg2 @WEF_kenya

[Global Fund for Widows @globalwidows]

One of the first things widows do after starting their business is improving the nutrition of their families (#SDG2). By including widow-specific initiatives in development programming, we can meet the goals of the 2030 Agenda.
