Exciting News! Seven Women is Now Sungabha Nepal! 〰️

Stephanie Woollard OAM began Seven Women at age 22 after meeting seven disabled women working in a tin shed in Kathmandu. These seven women were struggling to make a living in the face of harsh discrimination. With her last $200, Steph paid for trainers to teach the women how to produce products for sale locally and abroad – and Seven Women was born.

Over the past 17 years Seven Women has made significant impact.
