Support from the SFJWF has made it possible for us to make seven new interest-free loans so far, totaling $75,000, to women who have struggled to gain access to capital. Close to $20,000 of the amount disbursed in loans has already been repaid, and will be recycled in the coming year to assist additional women overcome challenges and pursue their life dreams.
Loans made to date include:
– Three emergency loans that helped recipients cover their basic expenses during a difficult time in their lives.
– Two debt consolidation loans that eased the burden of high-interest debt.
– Two personal loans that supported women and their families during periods of transition.
