International Women’s Day is a day for the world to reflect on the role of women and an occasion to congratulate all women around the world. At Wells Bring Hope we are honored to work with the women of Niger and to empower them through microfinance programs that transform their lives. These women wake up every morning wanting to succeed and help the people around them. We see in them their readiness to start a new life, where walking for miles to get water is no longer on their agenda, and where their dream for a better future for their children can become a reality.

On this special day we congratulate the women of Niger for having the courage to be empowered, the strength to inspire their children to dream, and the resolution to start a new life. We are honored to know such remarkable women, and to be a part of their new life and we look forward to doing more with them and for them in the future.

We would also like to thank and congratulate the inspiring women that make Wells Bring Hope a reality. From our founder to all of our volunteers, supporters, and donors, every woman that is involved in Wells Bring Hope is remarkable. All of the women that support us do so because it is in their heart to see a better world. The kindness and care that our women show is nothing short of extraordinary and life changing.

On this special day we want to thank you for your support, time, donations and maybe even sleepless nights where you have stayed up wanting to do more for the people of Niger. We want to congratulate all of you on your day and thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for being remarkable women.

Happy Women’s Day!
