Family Income

Income-generating programmes: assisting with education and skills training, business coaching and small business loans. These activities enable communities to generate and manage savings and loans on a small scale and in a sustainable way, enabling communities to plan ahead and invest in their future.

Microfinance through savings groups: we work to set up and train community member saving groups to save money on a regular basis. These groups of 15 to 25 members meet weekly to put money into a joint savings account, and they can take turns borrowing money which provides the opportunity to enable them to start or grow a business.
 
Improved farmland productivity: by training farmers in climate-smart agriculture practices including planting drought-tolerant crops, intercropping, and storing seeds and surplus stock which can be sold for further income - lifting the economic well-being of individual households.
