Tahoe businesses helping women in Kenya

Six South Shore businesses are donating a portion of their May sales to the Zawadisha Fund.

The 2nd annual She is Beautiful Lake Tahoe fundraiser is about locals honoring themselves and those they care about, while supporting Kenyan women and children as they learn life saving self-defense skills, health education and financial literacy by participating in innovative microlending and saving programs.
