From Poverty. To Possibility.
Microfinancing and loans are the key to ending poverty worldwide. They allow for people to have freedom of choice to decide their future with dignity, hope, and a way to a better life that is sustainable.
Working Together Works
Microfinancing Partners in Africa is working with organizations in Africa in five categories of microfinancing programming: Financial Loan Program, Cow Living Loan Program, Clean Water Program, Education Program, and Safe Woman Program. At the center of each of these programs is the opportunity for a hand up from poverty to possibility available to all no matter their race or religion.
The goal of our programs is to reduce poverty and increase economic development in Africa through access to financial resources.

In 2003, Sister Toni Temporiti traveled across Africa on a journey that would change the course of her life.
Along the way, she met women who worked tirelessly to care for their families, yet faced unimaginable choices. How far would they have to walk for water? How would they find enough food for their children?
Their conversations stayed with her long after she returned home.
She realized that what many families needed wasn’t charity alone. They needed access to an opportunity — a small loan, the resources to start a business, and the chance to build a sustainable future.
In 2006, that belief became Microfinancing Partners in Africa.
What began with one woman’s determination to make a difference grew into a mission connecting generous supporters with local partners and communities across Africa.
Twenty years later, that same belief continues to guide us: poverty should never determine a person’s potential.
And the ripple that began two decades ago is still growing.
