Empowering Women in Africa: Fulfilling Our Social Responsibilities
At DESAMI, we strongly believe in the power of social responsibility and the positive impact it can have on communities. As an integral part of our mission, we prioritise empowering women in Africa who work tirelessly to supply us with high-quality coconut oil, shea butter, and cocoa butter and other raw ingredients.
Some of these women who serve as the backbone of our supply chain for our Triple Body Butters face numerous challenges, such as limited access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities. Despite these obstacles, they display remarkable strength, resilience, and craftsmanship, creating exquisite products that reach far beyond their local markets.
In order to support these women and the communities they represent, we have committed to donating a portion of our profits from our Triple Body Butters directly back to them. By doing so, we aim to improve their lives and provide essential resources that contribute to their communities and their economic, educational, and overall well-being.
Education plays a vital role in empowering women. By investing a portion of our profits into education initiatives, we endeavour to give these women and girls in African communities the tools they need to thrive. By partnering with local organisations, we support scholarships, and develop programs that focus on vocational training and entrepreneurial skills. Equipping these women with education not only empowers them but also strengthens their communities by enabling them to create sustainable livelihoods.
In addition to education, healthcare is another fundamental aspect of our support. We recognise the importance of access to adequate healthcare and strive to invest in initiatives that improve the health and well-being of the women in our supply chain. This includes organising awareness campaigns to address prevalent health issues.
Furthermore, economic empowerment is at the forefront of our efforts. By reinvesting a portion of our profits within the communities that supply us with some of our raw ingredients (coconut oil, shea butter, and cocoa butter), we help create a stable and self-sustaining economic environment. We aim to create lasting and meaningful impact. We firmly believe that empowering women in Africa not only improves their lives but also uplifts entire communities, fostering a cycle of progress and prosperity.
At DESAMI, we are committed to fulfilling our social responsibilities, acknowledging the invaluable contribution of these women to our business. Through our continuous support, we strive to continue to empower them economically, educationally, and medically, ensuring that they can lead fulfilling lives and create a better future for themselves and their communities.Make it stand out.
