Mission

ITSERA's mission is to enable women in at-risk communities internationally to obtain economic independence and social empowerment.

There are women with no sustainable form of employment, so many remain in poverty and at risk of sexual exploitation. This problem diminishes women's confidence, debilitates their opportunities for education, and destroys families.

ITSERA supports women in at-risk communities to produce high-quality purses that are sold internationally. Profits return to the women themselves or to programs that are focused on women's education and empowerment in their communities.

We hope to see transformation in lives of women around the world affected by poverty, exploitation, and disaster through education, economic independence, and social empowerment.
