Global Food Crisis - One Solution in the Hands of Women

For Many Women, All It Takes is a Small Microcredit Loan.

Invest in a Woman Today.

We're so grateful that you have chosen to help a woman grow her business, generate an income and begin to build a better life for herself and her family.

Women for Women International began its Microcredit Lending Program in Afghanistan with an initial investment of $34,210.

Since then we have distributed more than $13.1 million in direct aid and microcredit loans. Our microcredit lending program in Afghanistan has taken over 55,000 women from victim to survivor to active citizen in their communities and their nations.

The Microcredit Program provides vital income-generation support to some of the most socially excluded women in Afghanistan. With a per capita GDP of $175-220, Afghanistan remains one of the poorest countries in the world.

Your gift or a small business loan can help provide a woman survivor of war start a small business, such as a bakery, carpet weaving, or tailoring. Your support gives a woman the dignity and self-respect that she lost when the war took everything from her.
