FEM TECH
Expiration: December 31, 2023I would like to set up gaming parlours/hives in Zambia to be led by women from underserved communities. The gaming parlours/hives will solve the problem of access to high tech entertainment for people that cannot afford high end gaming equipment in densely populated areas of Zambia while simutaneously offering low cost entertainment away from alcohol abuse and gambling for the youths. This is a social enterpreneurship model that is highly scalable, hence will benefit a lot of women and girls who will be empowered through the same system. Proceeds will also go towards combatting menstrual poverty, promoting menstrual health, providing safe havens for victims of sexual abuse, building a wellness center for mental health. I need funding to buy gaming equipment to setup, spaces to rent, employ people and empower other women. The gaming industry is fast paced and growing exponentially in Zambia and I would like to fill the gap for women involvement.

While one wants to preserve the integrity of the eyes, the risk of permanent retinal damage exceeds the potential benefits of the therapies and thus most of the children affected by retinal diseases are not treated.
