28/2/2021 – Talking about women empowerment,

Her Royal Highness Princess Basma Bint Talal  our Honorary President, visited (corn corner) seven  sisters who due to tough times and lack of jobs, took an inventive step to make a living out of selling grilled fresh corn, chestnut, and fresh grilled kunafa to sell to passersby their home garden.

 

This created a big stir as there were opponents with old school thinking that this job is not for women,

On the other hand, many liked the idea and supported the sisters including HRH Princess Basma when she visited them.

 

The support came either by buying from them or putting their story on social media which made more people know about them, so people went to see them, bought and tried their products, and appreciated them.

 

“Corn corner”

is an example of women leading the change in a changing world?

Hats off for all women who won’t sit idle and create the change themselves.

Five wheelchairs were donated to Inner Wheel club of Amman.

 

We contacted societies in needy areas, and donated the chairs in the name of IW club of Amman as follows:

A Wheelchair was given – Two chairs were delivered to (Birth of Virgin Mary church) needy handicapped person in Dair Alla.to a

 

Our thanks go to our colleague Mrs. Muna Anz for her generous warm gesture.

Hoping we can support them even more once we get more computer donations.

 

A new idea for “leading the change” and “empowering women” was adopted by Inner Wheel club of Amman.

Thanks to Mrs. Abeer Dajani (Honored Active Member) who took the initiative and was able to collect donations from our club members and their friends, then donated the money to a needy mother of three living in a rural village.

With this money the mother changed part of her house into a shop to sell products, where women from the village can buy feminine and children necessities.

We hope this idea will succeed, and more women can be helped this way.

Our Club’s Gratitude for all the work, effort and donations of our members. Working together we can change lives, especially during these hard times.
