Two Women, Shared Challenges, Empowered by the Chicken Farming Program

Through the Chicken Farming Program, resilient women like Qiesha and Biji are creating brighter futures for their families. Their gratitude inspires us!

Right now preparations are well underway for the 4th Husky (now part of the Cenovus group of companies) Tailoring Program for Women, Qinghai Province, China. Chosen from among many applicants, 30 women from underprivileged backgrounds will eventually be selected as the next group to commence their training. These women will be considered “furthest from employment”, and this program will turn their lives around. Many, for the first time ever, will have the capacity to earn consistent income on their own terms.
Our thanks to the team at Cenovus for making this possible. Can’t wait to communicate the first day of the program (starting sometime next month). #happeningnow
