Opportunity International
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!
