Together we can make it.

KIRUDEF runs its own Microfinance as a savings and credit scheme. The microfinance mobilises, sensitises and trains people in groups on the saving and credit business so as to encourage them understand the importance of saving. As subscribers to the microfinance, they are extended soft loans to invest in activities aimed at eradicating poverty in the community.

The major target groups are the pro-active youth, women and people with disabilities. Depending on the size of the loan, the repayment period ranges from three to six months. In order to raise more funds to run our activities,after considering the priority target, we also extend loans to individuals who are financially capable to payback as a measure of widening the organisation's financial base.
