How is World Vision helping?
VisionFund International, World Vision’s microfinance subsidiary, runs a global network of microfinance institutions that provides loans to low-income entrepreneurs who are involved in some form of small business or micro-enterprise activity. This means that people are able to repay their loans with the income from their businesses. VisionFund contributes to World Vision’s comprehensive approach for transforming communities by operating alongside programmes that enable communities to improve education, nutrition and sanitation. The majority of loan recipients are in areas served by other World Vision programmes.
