eHomemakers is an NGO
About Us
We are South East Asia's only community network that promotes working from home, teleworking and the running of SOHO businesses through the use of information and communications technology. Our e-community promotes self-help, business partnerships and entrepreneurship development for those who want to balance work and home life. Our social profit is derived from a pro-poor project focusing on eco-baskets production and service provision to empower women to embark on social-economic self-reliance.
VISION
Helping people to help themselves through ICT and innovation
MISSION
-To build an e-community of ICT savvy homemakers, homeworkers and homepreneurs and provide them with a platform for self-help and people-to-people teletrading
-To encourage homemakers and homebound individuals, especially the disadvantaged, to generate income and cultivate self-improvement through home-based ICT activities
-To disseminate family-orientated information at a one-stop e-centre to enable members to be smart and efficient in balancing home and worklife
-To develop a self-sustaining social enterprise by leveraging on the resources cultivated from the e-community in order to sustain the disadvantaged women’s project, the Salaam Wanita project
-To integrate the principles of sustainable development into our programmes so as to be part of the Millennium Development Goals at the Malaysian level
The "Eco-Baskets" on this site are the voice of disadvantaged women in Malaysia. Each basket is hand-woven from used magazines by low-income mothers to support their families from their own homes.
When you purchase a handcrafted basket, box or tote:
You help one woman
And help her family
You spread the ripple of economic self-reliance and inner strength to others around her
And inspire her community
