The micro Credit project has continued to play a pivotal role among our community women. The project commenced as a Village Savings and Lending Association where women came together in addressing their lack of working capital by saving from their small income. The saved funds are lent to an individual as a loan that is paid back on a weekly basis. This has helped many women to raise capital to start small businesses.
LACK OF FUNDS
Due to the big number of women who have come forward to do business, the available funds are not enough to cater for the many women who require capital to start business. There's a great need for capital to start business, hence the need for organizations or individuals to come forward to donate to this group that is going to uplift their community from poverty.
UPCOMING FUNDRAISING
We are in serious preparation to participate in upcoming fundraising campaign to raise more funds for our microcredit. It's our hope that people of good hearts will come forward as donors to support our cause.
May the Lord touch good hearted people to donate to our project so that many women in our community can come out of poverty and transform their communities.
Thank you so much and hope to see you then as you donate.
In Christ Jesus,
Henry
