How Donations to Microfinance Help
ACCION USA is pleased to have earned Charity Navigator's coveted four-star rating for financial management and responsibility for three years in a row, outperforming 82% of other charities. This means that ACCION USA directs your donation toward programs (e.g., microloans and providing education to low- and moderate-income microentrepreneurs), not to fundraising and administration.
- Your donation is used to host free workshops for emerging microentrepreneurs. These workshops educate participants on managing a small business, monitoring cash flow, and building and protecting a credit history.
- You'll provide support for our field lending staff, which works one-on-one with microentrepreneurs. Your donation also goes directly toward the cost of making microloans themselves.
Meet some of the clients whose businesses are helped through your donation.
