Our “Desire to Be Hub” is a safe space where our beneficiaries feel physically and emotionally secure. This started as an online service where girls and women were reached on WhatsApp, SMS, messenger, and phone class. Even with this, there was still a need of meeting the vulnerable girls physically. IHU is graduating to providing a physical safe space for girls and women where they feel protected from bodily harm, including sexual abuse. In our safe space, girls feel free to openly express themselves in a confidential environment, without fear of judgment or intimidation.
Building a Future Where Everyone Belongs and Desires to be.
Our Health and Wellness Programs for Women’s Empowerment are designed to promote physical, mental, and emotional well-being among women of all ages. Through workshops, health screenings, fitness activities, and educational sessions, we aim to increase awareness about vital health issues, foster healthy habits, and support women in taking charge of their own wellness. These programs also focus on building confidence, resilience, and leadership skills, empowering women to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.
We believe that health is a foundation for empowerment, and our initiatives provide a safe and supportive space for women to connect, learn, and grow. By addressing both physical and mental health needs, our programs strive to reduce health disparities, promote self-care, and cultivate a strong, empowered community of women committed to their well-being and personal development.
