For over 22 years the Diar Foundation has put women and girls at the center of their focus because we cannot overcome poverty until all people have equal rights and opportunities. As more women are taking leadership positions in social, political, and business roles, it’s essential to examine the way in which these women impact cultural development and societal progression. in some cases, these women’s community leader’s impact goes beyond their communities and affects transformative cultural change globally.
Our mission is to strengthen the war survivors, women, children, refugees, and immigrants’ most vulnerable women and their communities. The Diar Foundation seeks to improve the lives of economically disadvantaged women in Africa and America. We seek to enhance their wellness, independence, and self-sufficiency. We continue to provide our communities in Colorado United States, South Sudan, Sudan, and Uganda an environment in which they will be equipped to cultivate their awareness and expand their future opportunities. This is accomplished by our use of a variety of innovative and effective educational tools and strategies. Through education, farming, small businesses, and supportive networks.
