How The Village Net Works

1) Your donation seeds the loan fund

2) The Village Net administers loans in 4 month (16 week) cycles

3) Women entrepreneurs grow their businesses and repay their loans plus interest

4) Repaid loans get added to the loan fund, creating opportunities for even more women

5) Donations from ongoing supporters further multiply the lending opportunities

6) Women entrepreneurs return to apply for larger loans and grow their businesses even larger

This process empowers our women borrowers to provide food for their families, get their kids in school, gain respect and power and contribute goods and services to the local community.
