Village Savings & Loan Associations (VSLA)

Access to financial services transforms lives. Through Village Savings and Loan Associations, we help communities create their own savings groups where members can save money, access small loans, and build financial resilience.

These community-led groups foster trust, cooperation, and mutual support while providing essential financial tools that enable families to invest in their futures, handle emergencies, and grow small businesses.

Sustainable Agriculture & Food Security

Food security is the foundation of community wellbeing. We train farmers in sustainable agricultural practices, improved crop varieties, and climate-smart techniques that increase yields while protecting the environment.

Our agricultural programs connect farmers with markets, provide access to quality seeds and tools, and teach post-harvest handling techniques that reduce waste and maximize income.

By strengthening agriculture, we help families feed themselves, generate surplus for sale, and build resilience against drought and other climate challenges.
