Supporting Women Entreprenuers

When women have the tools and opportunities to start and grow businesses, entire families and communities flourish. Entrepreneurship is more than income—it’s independence, dignity, and a chance to shape the future.

Through The SCARF Project, CWFL Fellows are creating enterprises that open doors for other women, provide food and resources for their neighborhoods, and give families the stability they need to thrive. We tell just a few of their stories below. From fisheries to social enterprises, these businesses are fueling local economies and sparking long-term change.

By supporting women’s entrepreneurship, you’re investing in leaders who turn vision into action and hardship into opportunity. Together, we can build pathways of hope that extend far beyond one business—into families, communities, and generations to come.
