Our work
Knowledge creates opportunity
Through gaining skills and knowledge, saving group members can save their own money, develop ways to earn their own income, and be able to support themselves and their village independently and autonomously.
Group therapy
Much more than providing a financial tool, through training, collaboration and knowledge sharing, the saving groups empower, inspire and open up new possibilities for their members.
Girl power!
The central role women play in the groups helps to challenge traditional gender roles and strengthen women’s place in the community, as well as provide a path to economic freedom.
