MBMF Continues to Grow

One of our programs in Nepal continues to grow in number. My Business My Freedom or MBMF aims to address extreme poverty by providing women who are most at risk of becoming victims or have been rescued from human trafficking, with microloans to start a small business.

By allowing them to earn a sustainable income, these women have a better chance of fighting poverty and continued freedom.

A newly formed group of 22 members have been added to the program with your continued donations and support! This is a group of women whose new businesses are selling vegetables.

We look forward to seeing more women gain empowerment and freedom through this program.
