Helping people help themselves
Helping people help themselves is the only way to create sustainable change and to eradicate poverty.
Microcredit is a concept where small loans are given – often to woman – to allow them to start a small business and change their life for the better.
Done the right way, this can have an amazing impact on the lives of millions of people.
We are very impressed by the organization Hand in hand, that has used microcredits and training to empower almost 1 million people in India, Afghanistan and Africa to start their own business – giving 1.4 million people a job.
This is the right way to create change – don’t you agree?
