Microloan Support Makes for Successful Projects

By Jeannie Balanda | Executive Director

If you want to know how to run a successful microcredit project, go see Marta.  Marta always runs a solid project. She choses her activities wisely. She clearly understands her expenses and outlines her goals and is always eager to learn more.

She grows crops for the export market where she can earn more money. Vegetables such as potatos, green beans and strawberries yield good profits.  Marta consistently produces results and pays her loans back on time.  

Her success can largely be attibuted to the support she receives from the moment she applies for a loan.  Marta went through a series of trainings to increase the likelihood her projects will be fruitful. In addition, she receives periodic visits by loan supervisors who are available to help her work through challenges and make recommendations to improve project outcomes.

She is a terrific role model for other women who want to coordinate a successful microcredit project.
