The Cherie Blair Foundation for Women provides women in developing and emerging economies with the skills, technology, networks and access to financial services that they need to become successful small and growing business owners, so that they can contribute to their economies and have a stronger voice in their societies, resulting in a brighter future for the women themselves and their communities as a whole.
Since its first projects in 2009, the Foundation has directly reached over 118,000 women across more than 80 countries through its Mobile Technology, Mentoring Women in Business and Enterprise Development programmes in Africa, Asia, Central and South America and the Middle East. Tens of thousands more benefit indirectly as the women we support go on to become role models, create new job opportunities and invest additional income back into their families and communities. The Foundation has also published ground-breaking research on mobile technology for business growth and is undertaking high level advocacy to broaden the scope for women entrepreneurs in developing and emerging markets.
