Village Savings and Loans Association
The objective is to halve the number of persons living in poverty within ten years by creating a culture of saving and working. Weekly meetings build social capital, instill discipline and commitment to the group which is likely to send people to work and take on responsibilities that are financially rewarded in order to build and support their households and themselves. The goal is to have 20,000 small holder farmers in 10 years involved and actively participating in activities of the Village Savings and Loans Associations.
