Bwindi Microlending

This project focuses on helping to lend loans to help women in communities in Uganda. This helps to gain autonomy while also positively impacting their children and the opportunities available to them. When women gain financial security, they are more likely to invest money in their children’s education or medical expenses. Microfinance for women can also have positive impacts on entire communities. For instance, through the prioritization of education and the reduction of gender inequalities.
