The Gift

A $1000 loan can help a woman in Afhanistan create a business and use the profits to rebuild her home. And you're providing a self-employment loan, not a gift. Your donation will build discipline, responsibility, and self-confidence as women create their own business. And as each loan is repaid, the borrower's line of credit increases by an amount equal to her accumulated savings.
