Micro-Enterprise Loans in Egypt

2025Egypt

Small Loans, Big Impact

Through our partnership with GHNI, we are helping to provide micro-enterprise loans to women in need in Egypt. GHNI works with many different communities in Egypt & offers small loans to women to help them increase their income. So far 100% of loans have been repaid.

These loans are being used for many different income-generation projects:

  • Sewing and repairing clothes
  • Buying products to sell in small shops
  • Making cleaning agents
  • Making ice-creams and candifloss
  • Hair dressing
