We Enable Industry Development:  We provide small loans, or microcredit, to women to enable cottage industry development.  These microcredit projects include growing and selling vegetables, purchasing sewing machines for seamstress co-ops, buying livestock to sell the offspring and buying bulk food items to sell in smaller quantities at a profit.  Women repay their loans and use their profits to feed, clothe and educate their children.
