Meet the Women of Zohar: How Your Investment Turned Hair Styling into $1,293 in School Fees and Stability

The women’s salon continues to grow as both a small business and a steady source of support for the 10 women at its center. With consistent customer traffic and a strong reputation for quality services, braiding, styling, and basic beauty care, the team is building something sustainable together.

Over the past two months, that stability has translated into measurable results:

• January: $1,206 in sales, and $676 in profit
• February: $1,147 in sales, and $617 in profit

Beyond the Numbers: Direct Family Impact

Yet the most meaningful outcomes aren’t found in the totals, they’re found in how those earnings are used.

As families prepared for the new school term, the women made a deliberate and unified decision: instead of setting aside profits for savings, they distributed the income equally to meet immediate needs at home. For many, that meant paying school fees, purchasing uniforms, and securing supplies, ensuring their children could return to school ready and confident.

This is what impact looks like in real time.

Income earned through the salon is helping cover essentials like food, school fees, and healthcare, but it’s also creating something less tangible and just as important: stability, dignity, and a growing sense of possibility.

Inside the salon, that progress is visible every day. The women continue to strengthen their skills, support one another, and take pride in their work. What began as an income generating project has become a space of shared purpose and personal growth.

And it’s made possible through investment that trusts women to lead, decide, and support their families in the ways that matter most.
