This International Women’s Day, we want to introduce three women who are leaving their legacy in the most extraordinary ways.

One year ago, Tearfund launched its first Mums and Bubs programme through our partner, Compassion. Kiwis responded, and this year we were able to support two amazing groups of mums and their little ones in Kupang and North Maluku, Indonesia.

There’s something special about 150 women from all walks of life gathering in the same room. 

Here are ten photos from our most recent Empowher event!

Just last week, we had the opportunity to visit our partner Compassion's projects in Indonesia. Chica is a sponsored child that really left an imprint on our hearts. The hope she carried was powerful and contagious. Sponsorship lifted Chica and her family out of poverty, and we can't wait to tell you her story.
