We are a Ugandan-based social enterprise dedicated to empowering rural women and young people across Uganda through financial inclusion. We provide micro-loans, financial literacy training and the uptake of technology to help women start and run successful local businesses in their communities, to enable sustainable livelihoods and resilience.
Our Mission is simple: We are unlocking the potential of rural women and young people through financial inclusion. This is because we believe that, when women thrive, entire communities rise.
We envision a future where rural communities are thriving through the leadership of empowered women and youth, equipped with financial tools, knowledge and opportunity. Each day is an opportunity for us to build a sustainable community driven model that gives hope and inspires the growth of local economies.
One village at a time
Each single day of our work we deal with challenges rural women and young people face running a small business. We are here to change the story. Through our VSLA model and the already existing local structures, we are unlocking local potential to create jobs, raise household income, strengthen food security and promote climate smart solutions. Our model has been inspired by the Grameen Bank model. So, we are on a mission to promote entrepreneurship with purpose so that rural communities can rise, thrive and lead the way to sustainable change.
