GLOBAL WIDOWS' ASSOCIATION

"Grief has made me look at others with clearer eyes" - Toko Muodzi

Counselling

We provide widows and battered women with counseling services, psychosocial support and deal with emotional stress and trauma.

Emergency Aid

We help to facilitate and promote emergency relief services such as provision of food, shelter, medical support and clothing.

Projects

We facilitate funds to help disadvantaged women to start projects like poultry, pig husbandry, cooking classes and so forth.

Training

We provide training to empower beneficiaries. We facilitate funds to help widows to start projects in their countries and communities.

We, as Global Widows’ Association, are committed to educating and eradicating domestic violence. In most of our African cultures, a widow is subject to a lot of abuse from society at large. Most are forced to remarry and those second marriages can be hell. We help facilitate a safe haven for the abused spouses. We provide Police Stations with kits containing things like soap, champoo, tooth brushes and paste, hair brush,  makeup etc. to help  victims when they go to Police stations after rape and domestic violence. Many women, after suffering from something like this, go to a police station where they suffer further humiliation through hours of questioning, being stripped down and probed and photographed. In the end, they get an often cold shower with used bar soap and then must walk out of the police station wearing the same torn, and soiled clothes they came in with. One final reminder of the whole ordeal. These kits allow them to clean up properly and leave with at least a small amount of dignity.

What People Say about our foundation

Chantal Fakabo

My husband passed on in January 2020. We have always been farmers but after my husband's demise I have people threatening to take my farm because my husband is not there. Thanks to madame Toko, through the Global Widows' Association, I have been getting moral/emotional support as well as groceries to take care of my 2 girls.

I became a Widow when I was only 27 years old. When my husband died I was left with nothing and life has been a struggle since for me and our 2 girls . I want to thank sis Toko for inviting me to join the group Global widows association for moral, emotional and material support. I have friends now I can count on and I have received clothing and food from them. God bless

I am 40 years old. I met my husband in the International church of christ Cameroon in 2007. He passed on in 2015. I want to thank my sister Toko of the Global Widows Association for the help rendered to me through groceries. It is not easy to be a Widow in Africa.

Nowella Chikokonya

I became a Widow in 2012 and in 2013 I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I am unable to work. I want to thank Toko for introducing me to her group of widows and Aunty Grace of Grace upon Grace Ministries. I dont know where I would be today without the emotional, physical and material support of the GWA. I am able to look after my 2 kids and I pray that God will not take me before they finish schooling.
