We are currently running a pilot project targeting underserved students attending post-secondary education institutions in selected geographical areas in Africa. Our plan is to expand the program to other parts of the world soon.
Our program has two major components:
1. Interest free microloans - Our microloans are open to all students who meet our basic criteria; and
2. Grants - Our scholarships available to underserved students who are willing to pay back with volunteer work in their communities.
Note: Even though our interest free microloan program is open to almost any student that meets our basic criteria, our current focus is to provide scholarships to underserved, underprivileged and underrepresented students.
