Our method

How we conduct a project

Our projects address needs identified with the communities and favor practical solutions adapted to the local context.

View our reports
  1. Identify with communities

    Needs and participants are defined with local authorities and partner cooperatives, according to criteria agreed upon with each financial partner.

  2. Train and equip

    Practical on-site training, followed by equipment or start-up capital handed over personally, against a signed contract.

  3. Monitor in the field

    Regular visits, coaching and the gradual implementation of collective savings to consolidate each activity.

  4. Report back

    Each project ends with a detailed report, provided to both participants and partners.

Testimonials from those we support

  1. Before, I would sell whatever I could find at the market in the morning. Since the training and the start-up capital, I have a shop, stock, and a notebook where I record everything. I finally know what I earn.
    Kavira Beneficiary, 2026 project · Beni
  2. We had been trained before, but no one ever came back. Here, someone stops by every week to check the water and density. The first harvest was sold before it was even taken out of the pond.
    Masika Fish farmer · Lubero
  3. The cooperative allows us to buy feed together and negotiate a better price. On our own, we would never have obtained these terms from suppliers.
