Women Empowerment Initiative

100 women from distressed communities

On March 8, 2024, Foundever.org announced its partnership with Carerha, an Egypt-based EdTech female-focused platform that empowers women economically and fosters an inclusive workplace. Carerha has a proven track record with multiple companies across industries and sizes with targeting women empowerment. 

Our initiative, the Freelance Mama program, targets a niche segment: college graduates who had to stop working or never had the chance to start their career journeys due to family obligations. In its first year, the program aims at supporting 100 women from distressed communities across Egypt, offering a learning path that aims to lead to employment.  

In August 2024, 34 women graduated from the first class of the Freelance Mama program at Foundever Cario’s City Stars HQ with certificates in graphic design, content creation, and virtual assistance/content moderation. Many of these women have already put their skills to use in their own businesses or newly acquired jobs.  

Following the first cohort, 34 new women joined the program in Alexandria in September 2024.
