SMALL LOANS OF HOPE UPLIFTING LIVES
MANY STRUGGLING FAMILIES KEEP THEIR CHILDREN AT HOME TO HELP
EARN A LIVING. HOWEVER CREATING ADDITIONAL INCOME FOR A FAMILY MEANS PARENTS
CAN AFFORD TO SEND THEIR CHILDREN TO SCHOOL.
Through
our work in Sri Lanka we empower struggling families by providing small loans
and other financial services to start or develop a business. This in turn
improves their lives and the lives of others by generating employment within
the community.
While
families living in the rural areas of Sri Lanka have a basic livelihood, they
have little or no means of improving them. For those who lack assets and are
denied access to traditional credit providers, our work serves as an answered
prayer.We were founded as the microfinance arm of World Vision Lanka in 2004.
We
provide much needed capital to the business-minded poor in World Vision Area
Development Programmes. Our combined efforts improve the lives of people living
in poverty; the lives of their children and the communities where they
live.
