VisionFund, World Vision’s microfinance services provider, is the world’s largest Christian microfinance network. We empower rural entrepreneurs with small loans and other financial services to unlock the potential for their small businesses to grow.
Giving clients the training and support they need provides them with a sustainable income that enables their children to grow up with improved education, nutrition, health and shelter, giving them the foundation to build a better future.
How we work in the community
We provide small loans of a few hundred dollars to people who have no access to financial services. This provides a reliable source of funds to be used to set up or develop a small business. Whether buying items at the market for resale or growing vegetables, raising livestock or sewing school uniforms, our loans and other financial services help hardworking people, mostly women, make a living on a daily basis.
