Credit Access for War-Recovering Lebanese

A retail shop for Isaad

Making credit available for a small loan allowed this 40-year-old blind mother of four to help herself and her family--and feel justifiably proud of her achievement. Then the repaid funds from her loan became available to help someone else in her community.

A bakery for Ibrahim

Often these projects require few new skills beyond those already possessed by the head of household or other family members. That was the case for this 45-year-old man with special needs and father of two.

A retail shop selling women clothes for Inaam

Small loans, for activities such as home industries, can make a huge difference in the lives of many war-affected families in Lebanon, easing the burdens for people like this 37-year-old widow with special needs.

A carpentry workshop for Asaad

A demonstrated boost to self-support, small loans are a valuable asset far beyond the amounts of money involved, as Asaad can attest. A litmied amount of credit has made all the difference for this 35-year-old man with special needs and father of three.
