Even if you give the money to the wife, she will surrender it to the man who will misuse it. Seeing these kind of outcomes, I dont understand why NGOs still focus their attention on the North?
@Tisheyy opined that:
That quote is always true. "When you empower a man, you empowered an individual but when you empower a woman, you empower a community."
@godwin_france indicated:
First of all, the one running an NGO should know that you don't hand over cash to beneficiaries. There is a whole report on this by the UN. Secondly, the NGO should have that report
While speaking on the impact of NGOs, Abraham Smiles Foundation, a non-profit organization which was founded by a young man named Ibrahim Muntari is dedicating its resources to cleaning Ghana and feeding the needy.
