1,300 direct community participants (1,250 adults –about 30% men and 70% women, including 50 community development promoters) will receive a training in empowerment, social and managment skills, in order to help create small businesses and improve the quality of their lives. We are expecting that about 50% of participants would establish small businesses, either independently or in small groups.
The project will include: a 40 hrs workshop for 50 community promoters; follow-up visits to support promoters in the replication of the workshop; loans for at least 600 program participants to form small businesses and follow up visits to businesses.
Total Funding Received to Date: $110
Remaining Goal to be Funded: $9,890
Total Funding Goal: $10,000
This project has provided additional documentation in a Microsoft Word file (projdoc.doc).
600 people will participate in the program and form small businesses. Through continued reinforcement of skills, participants will continue marketing and selling products that they produce – making each business a sustainable venture.
“Though IMIFAP’s training we learned to save and create businesses, we injected money into the businesses that we already had and from there all the women could say, ¡yes we want to, yes we can!”
