How We Work

We empower from the ground up through coaching, community leadership, and solidarity. Our RECET Model (Renew, Connect, Equip, Thrive) is the core of everything we do.

Our Programs

Entrepreneurship and Solidarity Funding

We train women in savings, business management, and help them launch IGAs. Through collective savings, group loans, and links to financial institutions, women take control of their financial futures.

Family Support

We provide psychosocial counseling, safe spaces, and medical referrals for abused women and children. We also advocate for legal rights and provide access to marriage certificates and community nurseries.

Life skills and Leadership

We train women in health (nutrition, SRH, hygiene), peacebuilding, non-violent communication, and conflict resolution—helping them grow into confident, resilient leaders.

Our RECET Model (Renew, Connect, Equip, Thrive) is the core of everything we do.

RENEW

Restoration & Encouragement
We begin by restoring hope, dignity, and self-belief in vulnerable women. Through compassionate care, affirmation, and emotional support, we help women reclaim their sense of worth and courage to face life’s challenges.

CONNECT

Community & Belonging
Empowerment flourishes in community. We connect women to supportive Self-Help Groups (SHGs), where they find belonging, build mutual trust, and share strength. Together, they create networks that uplift and sustain one another.

EQUIP

Skills & Mindset Development
We equip women with essential life skills and mindset shifts critical for holistic growth. Practical training in entrepreneurship, leadership, health, and communication enables sustained resilience and personal transformation.

THRIVE

Economic Empowerment & Sustainability
The journey culminates in thriving economic empowerment. Women build sustainable businesses, create stable families, and secure futures not only for themselves but for entire communities. This is lasting change in action.

Successful stories

MWAJUMA Micheline

When I had given up and lost my sense of life, Faith in Action Africa came to my rescue, restored me, and encouraged me to face life despite my problems. They connected me with other women, where I was empowered in different areas, regained my self-confidence, and learned that I can thrive just like others.

Lyse Mahirwe

Everything went down when my husband, who was the breadwinner got sick, but Faith In Action Africa came through and initiated me into an SHG where I was able to get a loan in my group of 200k and start a business of selling palm oil, enabling me to care for my family’s needs and thrive as a woman

Kwizerimana Agnes

My husband used to struggle a lot to get food on the table, but after being connected to other women, trained in entrepreneurial skills, starting from saving and crediting, Faith In Action Africa taught me that I can make an income, which not only boosts my confidence but also gives me a place in my family and community

Mukehabirori Laeticia

Faith in Action Africa did not only awaken my thinking, but also transformed how we handle family matters. Through their guidance, I was able to support my daughter who had dropped out of school and was preparing for early marriage. That decision would have kept her in the same cycle of poverty I have struggled to overcome — being uninformed, financially dependent, and unable to contribute meaningfully to the family. Faith in Action Africa helped me understand that, as women, we can make informed choices, shape our futures, and live impactful lives.
