This is what it looks like when you gather the members of the different Village Savings and Loan Associations facilitated by the Charis Project into one place and ask them to share their stories.
This is what it looks like when people have financial security for the first time, and hope for their family’s future.
This is what it looks like when the last emergency didn’t turn out to be that bad, because he was a savings group member and could ask for a loan that wouldn’t cost him the full principle in interest by the time he paid it back.
This is what it looks like when mothers aren’t afraid of the future anymore, and have reserves.
This is what it looks like when people are now debt free.
This is what it looks like to be able to invest in a business or buy land, instead of go from crisis to crisis.
This is what financial freedom looks like.
This is what supporting the Family Enterprise Program does for vulnerable families. When you give them secure savings structures, you give them a much more secure future.
Thank you for supporting families and equipping parents with the tools they need to protect their children and raise them to be the heroes they were born to be.
