Small business grants and mentoring for 300 women rebuilding household income.
A modest, well-timed grant can restore a family's income permanently — far beyond what a single relief package achieves.
This programme combines a grant, six months of mentoring and a peer savings group for 300 women.
Income change is measured at six and twelve months and published in our impact reports.
