Opportunity International provides microfinance - small loans, savings, insurance and training - to the world's poorest people who want to work their own way out of poverty.
A micro loan to a poor entrepreneur is used to start or expand a business, providing an income, dignity of work and hope for the future.
This finance is not a 'hand-out', but a 'hand up'. 98% of loans are paid back and lent out again, so a donation to Opportunity is a gift that keeps on giving!
Shelter is a charity that works to alleviate the distress caused by homelessness and bad housing. We do this by giving advice, information and advocacy to people in housing need, and by campaigning for lasting political change to end the housing crisis for good.
How it works
Simply by completing a donation form, you can choose to support Shelter, directly from your pay.
