Soap making Day
Empowering through detergents
One product that is used and needed by every individual on a daily basis is soap. It is very easy to make and sell. WOVIA has carried out a soap making day teaching women how to make their own soap that they can use at home for themselves and also sell to earn an extra income.
This soap making day is organised regularly. Keep looking out at our website for the next soap making day coming up soon.
