LIGHTING THE WAY: THE NYOTA IMPACT
Partnering to empower women leaders in the DRC

What is Nyota? It's Swahili for star. And it's the name of a unique women's leadership program that Impact Now co-developed with women leaders in DRCongo—a leadership development program specifically to meet their needs in their context.

The stars of Nyota—the program participants—are lighting a pathway to transform their communities.

They are—

Encouraging young girls in primary and secondary schools to dream big and develop leadership skills through community service projects.
Advocating for fair treatment of domestic workers.
Teaching workplace and negotiation skills to marginalized and displaced women.
Providing basic hygiene materials for male prisoners, people normally rejected by society.

Through the NYOTA program, Impact Now partners with these dedicated women who work in schools, churches, and NGOs, to equip them with skills, mentorship, and a powerful network.

This Giving Tuesday, join this partnership. Give generously.

Your support will fuel leadership training, provide resources, and help build sustainable networks that allow these women to illuminate paths of hope and strength for future generations.

Let’s make a lasting difference, one empowered leader at a time.

The NYOTA Leadership Program is a program of IMPACT NOW: WHEN WOMEN LEAD. All donations go to Impact Now and are used to directly support the NYOTA Leadership Program.
