Empowered Congolese Women March

Ownership of chicken and rabbit farms is truly changing the lives of single mothers in the D.R. Congo. Not only are these entrepreneurs using the income earned from selling chicken eggs and investing in sewing businesses, they are feeling empowered. On March 8, 2010, over 500 women marched against violence towards women, of which so many of them are victims. We can all learn from their courage.
