A Need for Acceptance
World Challenge’s partners are working to build a meaningful community for widows in northern Egypt.
For Talia*, a woman from a small village in northern Egypt, loneliness had become a way of life.
Earlier this year, Talia lost her husband to COVID-19. He was healthy and young, so his death was unexpected. Life for a widow in the rural villages of Egypt is difficult under any circumstances, but the fact that Talia’s husband died of COVID-19 made it exponentially worse.
