Problem : Over 33,000 children die every day due to the devastating effects of poverty; that's more than 22 children dying every minute.* |
|||
| Solution : Rescue a Million helps provide the hard-working parents of children all over the world with micro-loans to start small businesses. With their loans, in the form of cash, equipment, or animals, parents can begin to change the quality of life for themselves and their children. With their new business, or with much needed expansions to an already existing enterprise, parents can generate the income necessary to afford the food, clothing, shelter, medicine and education their children need-often breaking the bonds of poverty forever. Lives are saved when children are rescued from poverty. Your help allows more children to benefit from these life-changing loans which can be used in areas such as: | |||
| - Animal husbandry | - Agricultural products | - Handmade crafts | - Kiosks and snack shops |
|
Our loan repayment rates are all extremely high and some areas are even at 100%. As each loan is repaid, in cash or in-kind, the funds are lent out again to help another family in need become self-sufficient. This cycle is repeated perpetually, greatly multiplying the effect of each dollar you donate. With your help, entire communities can lift themselves and their children out of poverty. |
