How Your Donation Can Transform Lives

Women's Empowerment International (WE) has a simple and direct mission. It provides microcredit loans as small as $50 to very poor women so they can start businesses and create new and better lives.

In partnership with nonprofit "banks for the poor," we work with indigenous women in Mexico and Honduras and with women farmers in Africa. In San Diego, our home, we help refugee women, many of whom have spent a decade or more in refugee camps, become self-sufficient entrepreneurs.

How are we different? We apply 100 percent of your donation to the program of your choice. And, of course, all donations are completely tax deductible.

Our goal is to help the 3 billion people in our world who live on $2 a day or less.

We also hope to transform lives. Our own have been changed by on-going communication with our loan recipients, hundreds of whom have taken $50 and built an entirely new life. With profits from their businesses, they've put waterproof roofs on their houses. Sent their children to school. And when their children got sick, they were able to purchase life-saving medicines.

At WE, we've made it as simple as possible for good people everywhere to come together to fund small loans and truly change the face of poverty.
