🧡 A year of being EMPOWERed - in our cohort's own words.

We asked 40 young women what a year of EMPOWER did for them. Their answers all began in the same place: the feeling of being on the outside, looking in.

"I used to feel like I had to shrink myself to fit in here. Different name, different face, always proving I belonged. Then I joined EMPOWER. Finally, a space that didn't make me explain myself."

From job offers and internships to the quieter wins: confidence, voice, a room full of women who lift each other up. This is the story of what EMPOWER made possible this year.

A year ago, our Cohort 8 were on the outside, looking in. Today, they're holding the door open. Want to join them? Express your interest in Cohort 9: https://mailchi.mp/theamberfoundation/empower9-express-interest

This month we donated an incredible 46 boxes totalling 477 kgs of personal care products to Refugee Union【難民聯會】, a group of refugees in Hong Kong, dedicated to empowering the refugee community by safeguarding their rights and improving their wellbeing.

Do you want to support initiatives like this? Donate your unused personal care items, such as airline travel kits and small-sized hotel amenities, to any of Official Collection Points. We'll ensure they get sorted, repacked and distributed among our growing network of Charity Partners.

If you are a wholesaler, hotel or airline and you have a large quantity to donate, please contact us directly [email protected]
