Community Savings and Loans for Coffee Growers

Providing simple financial solutions to coffee farmers in the community who do not have access to formal financial services. 

Our savings and loans program is simple but the results are powerful:

• The savings system is flexible across members and over time.
• Members do not have to save the same amount as each other; and they do not have to save the same amount at each meeting.
• By saving small amounts frequently, the members can build their savings more easily, and this contributes to improving the security of the household.
• Savings are maintained in a loan fund from which member CBOs can borrow small business loans
