Empowered women are a force to be reckoned with, and that’s exactly why EBY and Akola teamed up — we’re even stronger together. We’re women on a mission to transform lives and communities.

Akola

Akola means She Works in a Ugandan dialect and is a luxury jewelry brand. Akola employs nearly 200 women in extreme poverty in Uganda to create each piece using local and sustainable materials.

100% of Akola women earn a living hourly wage

77% of Akola women consider themselves “sole providers”

66% of Akola women own a home vs 28% national average

EBY

EBY stands for Empowered By You. EBY reinterprets seduction for empowerment, giving 10% of proceeds to women entrepreneurs around the world through microfinance loans.

By 2027, EBY aims to empower 1,000,000 female entrepreneurs through microfinance.

With a loan as small at $90, a woman can transform her life, lift her family out of poverty and build a stronger community.

We’re here, asking you to join us in our missions. As a thank you, we have a little something special from both of us. Sign up below, and we’ll send it your way.
