Why We Love Them: In Zulu, “Zimele” means “to stand on one’s own two feet” and Zimele Community confronts the root causes of poverty to make that possible for the women of South Africa.
Mission: Zimele Community empowers women with the skills, resources, and support networks to start businesses and social service projects to sustain themselves, their families, and their communities.
