Business and Education Micro-lending for Youth

Project Report | Nov 30, 2015
Youth Fund for Poverty 2 Prosperity November 2015

By Colette | Youth Fund Manager

The Youth Fund is a small fund that invests in the next generation.  The fund is almost evenly split between business and education loans.  For education loans, there are two basic categories--post high school, which is generally borrowed by the student, and loans for the benefit of children (elementary through high school) but borrowed by a parent.  Here is one mom from Lebanon who wants more for her children:

 

Sviltana is a 37-year-old married woman with two children. She is really attached to her family and her husband works very hard to provide a respectable living.

She will use the loan to pay to purchase her children's school books. One of her greatest dreams is for her children to achieve higher positions. Sviltana’s husband wishes to develop his work and better support his family.

Thank you for helping Sviltana's dreams for her children come true!
