When women gain new skills, confidence and access to employment, families and communities thrive.
WOMEN’STEC helps women and girls overcome barriers to training and employment, creating pathways to financial independence and brighter futures.
Grants from The Ireland Funds are making a difference by:
- Providing skills training and employability support for women
- Building confidence and self-belief through personal development
- Opening pathways into employment and further training
- Increasing opportunities in sectors where women have traditionally been underrepresented
- Supporting greater economic participation and independence.
We are incredibly grateful to The Ireland Funds and its donors for their continued investment in WOMEN’STEC through the Heart of the Community Fund. At a time when demand for our services continues to grow and unrestricted funding remains increasingly difficult to secure, this support has been invaluable.
The Ireland Funds has strengthened the foundations of our organisation, enabling us to respond to emerging community needs, build new partnerships, secure additional investment and expand our reach across Northern Ireland.
– Helen Kerr, Head of Business Development, WOMEN’STEC
