UNICEF Enterprising womenâ€™s association works to support families and community

hese women in Burkina Faso are doing more than collecting trash â€“ they're reclaiming their independence. They are part of an association of women, many of whom were left by their husbands for younger wives, or women whose husbands died and left them without the means to provide for themselves and their children. The women's association owns the carts and makes its money going house to house. The association was started by Kabore Ouedraogo after her husband died. In addition to collecting trash, the women make soap. They use local materials and boil the soap in huge vats heated over a wood-fuled fire. They make other cosmetics, as well. The money they earn, along with the money from collecting trash, pays for school fees for their children, as well as local children who've been orphaned. Two years ago, UNICEF provided start-up funds, and now offers technical assistance and counseling. The UNICEF representative in Burkina Faso has been amazed with the results. "Through those investments, there is really an improvement of the living conditions of the family.
