At MEDA, we really enjoy bringing back stories of how our work, made possible by your support, is making a difference the lives of clients around the world. A big THANK YOU for your generosity toward our EDGET project in Ethiopia. As a token of appreciation for your generous gift, we'd like to share with you the following story.
Enyesh – Anticipating something positive
Rice farmer Abebayitu was selected by EDGET to become a community facilitator for the village of Dikule and create an environment where financial literacy and saving was promoted. This is how the Village Savings and Loan Assocation (VSLA) Enyesh, which means “anticipating something positive” in Amharic, was born. Read the client story Enyesh: Increased Income and Improved Livelihoods to see how your donation is changing lives of EDGET farmers and weavers…
