EdenLA’s Support for Mercy Beyond Borders
EdenLA is partnering with the incredible humans at Mercy Beyond Borders and donates 10% of all proceeds from our projects to their humanitarian efforts worldwide. Mercy Beyond Borders educates women and girls in places where females are considered less valuable than cattle. Through a case-management approach, they award high school and university scholarships to girls in rural northern Haiti, South Sudan, Malawi and in the refugee camps of Uganda and Kenya. They give micro-loans to refugee women who launch successful small businesses in the camps, empowering them to support their families. Girls escaping forced marriages find safe haven at the only all-girl elementary school in South Sudan. Mercy Beyond Borders enhances the curriculum with a school nurse, lending library, & new dorm and computer center. Their conviction: When women LEARN, women MATTER. THEN EVERYTHING CHANGES. Educated women will rise to become leaders in their communities and beyond, making real progress toward peace and equality. Your participation with the EdenLA family contributes to these efforts already (thank you!!!), but if so moved, please reach out to ask how you can become more involved with this life-changing movement.
