As the year draws to a close, we at Microfinancing Partners in Africa (MPA) extend our deepest gratitude for the incredible support of our donors and partners. Thanks to your generosity, we’ve made strides in our mission to empower individuals and communities in Africa to break the cycle of poverty and build sustainable livelihoods. Here’s why your year-end gift to MPA is an impactful way to help create lasting change:
1. Making a Real Impact in 2024
This year, the power of your donations was evident. Nearly 16,000 people gained access to clean water through MPA initiatives, and we saw an 89% increase in microfinancing loan recipients. Each loan provided isn’t just an opportunity for income; it’s a step towards stability, independence, and hope for families and entire communities.
2. Empowering Sustainable Change
At MPA, we believe that sustainability is key to lasting progress. By funding microfinancing programs, you’re not just supporting temporary relief efforts but empowering individuals to create and grow businesses that will sustain their communities for years to come. Your gift fuels a ripple effect of positive change, turning recipients into leaders, mentors, and even donors in their own communities.
One story that highlights the transformative power of our programs comes from a family who once had to send their daughters on a dangerous four-mile walk to fetch water. Now, thanks to a new borehole in their community, they have safe, nearby access to water, freeing their children to attend school without fear. This one improvement has empowered the whole community, reducing risks and opening doors to education and health.
3. Supporting Visionary Leadership and Honoring Legacy
This year, we welcome Christian Wargo as MPA’s new Executive Director. Christian is committed to guiding MPA’s mission forward with a renewed vision of sustainability and impact. At the same time, we honor our founder, Sister Toni Temporiti, whose transformative vision built MPA into the organization it is today. Her dedication to long-term solutions is a lasting legacy that continues to inspire our work, ensuring that every dollar contributed goes toward sustainable progress.
4. Building a Sustainable Future
Your year-end gift helps ensure that MPA remains resilient and responsive to the needs of the communities we serve. As we look to the future, your generosity allows us to adapt, grow, and bring life-changing resources to even more people. This holiday season, please consider giving to MPA to help us continue our mission of empowering individuals, fostering sustainable growth, and building stronger communities.
