For millions of families around the world, microfinance means the opportunity for a successful small business and more: better healthcare and housing, increased household savings, education for their children, and ultimately, the real possibility of self-sufficiency. Microfinance services include small loans to start or support microenterprises, health and other types of insurance, and savings programs designed to serve the poor. |
