We the People, Feed the People

mfp_bagFor thirteen years Zaman International has been providing food, food assistance and holiday food boxes to those in need.

B.O.O.S.T.

Pattern DesigningThe B.O.O.S.T. (Building Ongoing Opportunities through Sustained Training) program was created to help empower women who are marginalized due to a lack of education or opportunity.

Established in 2007, B.O.O.S.T. began modestly with the realization that within our community there were women whose lives had been severely affected by a variety of causes. Whether suffering the effects of divorce, abandonment, domestic violence, chronic illness or loss of a spouse, these women lacked the skills necessary to support themselves and their families.

With a grant from the Khaki Foundation, Zaman International provides a platform to educate these marginalized women, whatever the root cause. By addressing core issues such as English language literacy, continuing education through the achievement of the GED or vocational training, B.O.O.S.T. participants are offered not just a chance at a better life, they are instilled with a strong sense of accomplishment and self-sustainability.
