We believe in an economy that empowers, not excludes. Social entrepreneurship and the solidarity economy are powerful tools for breaking cycles of poverty and generating sustainable hope in communities. We support grassroots entrepreneurs in designing and implementing projects that generate income, create jobs, and strengthen the social fabric.
Our approach goes beyond business: we seek to develop well-rounded individuals who see their work as an extension of their faith and their love for others. Through training, microloans, mentorship, and collaborative networks, we transform ideas into livelihoods and dreams into sustainable realities.
Redemptive economics reminds us that resources are a tool for blessing, that work is an act of worship, and that true prosperity is shared. Therefore, every venture we support seeks not only to be profitable, but also to restore relationships, care for creation, and reflect the values of the Kingdom.
Access to capital is one of the biggest barriers for entrepreneurs in vulnerable communities. That’s why we’ve created a seed capital fund and microloans with fair terms and personalized support. It’s not just about lending money, but about walking alongside the entrepreneur every step of the way.
Our loans are designed to be accessible, with affordable rates and grace periods tailored to the specific needs of each business. Furthermore, every borrower receives training in basic business administration, marketing, and personal development, ensuring that their business not only survives but thrives.
We offer practical workshops in administration, finance, marketing, and human development. Our entrepreneurs learn to manage their businesses with excellence and integrate their faith into every decision.
We connect entrepreneurs with fair markets, local fairs, and digital platforms so their products can reach more people. We believe in commerce with purpose.
Each entrepreneur has a mentor who guides them through key moments: from launch to expansion. Together they celebrate victories and face challenges.
The solidarity economy teaches us that we can grow together. We promote the formation of cooperatives, producer associations, and barter networks where entrepreneurs support each other, share resources, and celebrate collective achievements.
Instead of competing, we learn to collaborate. A baker can exchange products with a seamstress, an artisan can share her stall with another entrepreneur. In this way, we build an ecosystem where everyone has a place and everyone can flourish. We believe that God’s blessing is abundant and that there is enough for everyone when we share generously.
Delve into the principles of redemptive economics and learn about the stories of entrepreneurs who are transforming their communities through decent work and solidarity collaboration.
