In the heart of Maracha District, a transformative project is taking shape — the Amani Elevator Facility. Currently under construction, this facility is envisioned as a central hub for empowerment, learning, and essential service delivery, designed to strengthen communities and uplift the most vulnerable, especially women and children.
Once completed, the Amani Elevator Facility will serve as the headquarters of Amani Initiative, creating a permanent base from which the organization can coordinate, expand, and sustain its community development programs. More importantly, it will provide a safe and accessible space for community members to access critical services and life-changing opportunities.
A Center for Skills, Services, and Empowerment
The facility will host a range of skills training programs aimed at improving livelihoods and promoting economic independence. These will include vocational and practical trainings tailored to local needs, such as tailoring, soap and detergent making, crafts, agribusiness skills, and other income-generating activities. These programs are designed to equip women and youth with hands-on skills that translate directly into sustainable income.
In addition to skills training, the Amani Elevator Facility will provide space for the provision of essential services, including community meetings, counseling and psychosocial support, financial literacy sessions, women’s group activities, and child-focused programs. By bringing these services under one roof, the facility will become a one-stop center for growth, protection, and empowerment.
Strengthening Women and Protecting Children
Women and children remain at the center of Amani Initiative’s mission. The Amani Elevator Facility will create a safe and supportive environment where women can learn, organize, and build confidence, while children can access supportive services that promote their well-being, education, and protection. The facility will help reduce barriers to participation by providing a nearby, trusted, and community-owned space.
A Call for Partnership and Support
While construction is underway, completing the Amani Elevator Facility requires additional financial support. Amani Initiative is actively seeking partnerships with well-wishers, donors, foundations, and corporate partners to help bring this vision to life.
Every contribution — whether financial, material, or technical — will directly support the completion of this facility and expand access to life-changing services for the Maracha community. By investing in this project, partners will be investing in long-term community resilience, women’s empowerment, and the protection and development of children.
Building the Future Together
The Amani Elevator Facility represents more than a building. It represents hope, opportunity, and a shared commitment to lifting communities toward a more empowered and self-reliant future.
Amani Initiative warmly invites all well-wishers to join hands in supporting the completion of this vital community asset. Together, we can ensure that women and children in Maracha District have access to the skills, services, and support they need to thrive.
