$10-15 is a common loan from the Community Based Organizations (CBO’s) we support like Mother’s Concern and Tumaini Pomoja. In February I met a woman who turned such a loan into a $75/mo business that allowed her to overcome the major obstacle of school fees for her 6 children, pay rent, and help break the cycle of poverty for her family.

A little goes a long way in the hands of our creative and innovative partners in Kenya. Together with your support, we provided the capital needed for YOCHAN to purchase land, pay title fee, and construct a new Resource Center. Charles Owino, founder of YOCHAN, listed the ways this investment is changing his community:

• “Alleviate poverty since the needy youths…earn livelihood from the proceeds of the detergent business
• Our community will be more empowered by information accesible in our resource centre on issues of hiv, drugs, development,human rights-youth,children,women and health.
• OPTIMISTIC ATTITUDE DEVELOPED THROUGH OUR PEER COUNSELING AND EDUCATION SESSIONS IN THE RESOURCE CENTRE.
• Prolonged lifespan due to ability to protect oneself against hiv through our advocacy programs in hiv/aids.
• Increased security since most of the youths are kept busy through the games available in the resource centre and other YOCHAN activities.”

We are in the final 2 days of our “Stand With Us” campaign. We are about half way to our goal of 200 investments. Will you stand with us so we can continue to stand with our incredible partners like Charles and YOCHAN?

1: Help us reach our year-end goal of 200 donations!

2: Enter to win a night on the town for 2 This includes 2 tickets to see comedy improv at The Bovine Metropolis Theater and dinner for 2 at Rialto Cafe ($25 gift certificate).

It was a beautiful, crisp fall night in Denver. DazBog coffee’s patio was lined with lights, and the sounds of laughter, sharing, and the clinking of glasses spilled out into the night. Thanks to Marc and Mark (that sounds like a boy-band name), DeKorne Photography, and everyone who came!

In addition to being a wonderful time, we also raised $614! That brings our campaign to:
