We believe in long-term solutions. Did you know that 98% of our micro-finance loans are repaid, so our partners can lend the money again to other deserving people?

Before we build a new school, first we visit the village where our partners tell us there is a big need. Often we see kids trying to learn in a mud building without desks like this one we visited last October. Yet despite the poor learning conditions, the kids are always working hard to learn what they can. Just think of what they could achieve if given a better chance. One of our resolutions is to build more schools, and better futures for some pretty deserving kids.
