Microfinance
Supporting local businesswomen
Alongside the Ride 4 A Woman community in Bwindi, the organization offers microfinance to budding businesswomen looking to create and build on their own entrepreneurial ideas.
Over 200 women are currently engaged in the scheme in more than 10 different types of business initiatives: from secondhand cloth stores, to restaurants, tailor-made dresses, money transfer businesses, market stores, brick making, among others.
The women engaged in the scheme are focused on covering the basics – supplies for home and ensuring their children receive an education. But if they have the chance, they don’t stop there, and they are able to do great things. Through this program, Ride 4 A Woman is providing these opportunities.
Women are continuing to invest and grow their skills and ideas. They are simply an inspiration.
