INKSTER – People Magazine has selected Zaman International Founder and CEO Najah Bazzy for its  Women Changing the World in 2020 issue which recently hit newsstands around the country. Released nationally on March 6, the issue highlights CEOs, activists and actresses who are creating positive change.

“I am honored by the recognition, but it’s the resilience of the women and children who come to Zaman to escape extreme poverty that is creating change,” said Bazzy. “I think too often people underestimate the impact of hope and empathy and what can happen when you empower someone. That’s what our team at Zaman is focused on every day and where we draw our inspiration to make a difference.”

The full-page profile “Breaking the Cycle of Poverty,” features Zaman’s work providing basic necessities and life skills training from its facility in Inkster designed to be a one-stop center for low-income women and children. The article highlights the more than 8,000 hours of vocational training Zaman provided women in 2019 through its vocational, literacy and culinary arts programs.
