Without a reliable source of income, families stuck in poverty have zero capacity to secure their future, no matter how hard they try. And handouts just aren’t going to cut it - they need a permanent way forward. How can you help them forge that new path? You can kick start a small business. With a simple, one-time investment, you can help a family kick start an enterprise that has the potential to stabilize their fragile system and give them control over their future.
