Description
Josephine was in Asia since 1996, where she was moved by the needs of homeless children and struggling single mothers. After training under a master soap maker, Josephine launched a handmade soap business—creating job opportunities and empowering mothers to support their families.
In 2012, Josephine and her husband Raj relocated to another country in Asia where she continued her mission using businesses as a tool for transformation. She founded Touch Nature, a soap business, and later iDelight, a Singaporean restaurant. Through these ventures, she has created sustainable jobs for women from the slums—restoring dignity, building self-reliance, and funding the care of homeless children she welcomes into her home and ministry.
In 2023, Ian met Josephine while she was walking with 21 homeless children in her care. He was moved by her compassion and desire to empower people to overcome their situations and regain their own dignity and self worth. Inspired by Josephine's vision for an impactful and self-sustaining ministry using her businesses, Ian felt called to partner with her in this transformative work.
