“We exist to provide opportunities for people living in poverty to transform their lives. With over 40 years' experience in microfinance and support services, we use a business approach to solve poverty. Rather than a hand-out, we provide our clients with a loan as small as $100 (known as microcredit or a micro loan) to help grow their small business. This enables them to earn an income and afford food, water, shelter and an education for their children.”-Opportunity International Organization ,Australia
