Introduction

This blog is written by eHomemakers interns. We would like to write our daily work, what interns do in Malaysia, and what interns feel in Malaysia.

eHomemakers is a NPO in Malaysia and work for single mothers, disabled women, and financially poor women. eH was formed in 1998 as an informal mothers’ group, ‘Mothers for Mothers’, with a core team of volunteer organizers. Its aim was to help mothers to work @ home to balance home and work life. In 2002, it became a social enterprise with an active e-community and was renamed ‘eHomemakers’. eH is now Malaysia's only community network that promotes working from home, teleworking and the running of SOHO (small office home office) businesses through the use of Information & Communication Technology (ICT). 

The Salaam Wanita project, a component of the eHomemakers community network, was launched in 2002 to empower less fortunate women through an end-to-end poverty alleviation solution based on Fair Trade principles for the goal of self-reliance.

Interns come from several other countries, including U.S., Italy, France, Taiwan, Japan, etc.
