Micro Financing

Disabled people face discrimination and marginalization across the globe. They are affected by extreme poverty and due to this; they have limited livelihood opportunities. Microfinance Institutions (MFIs) overlooked the responsibility to include disabled people into their mainstream program. Microfinance is supposed to be for poverty reduction, empowerment of poor and vulnerable people but very few examples shows that microfinance served disabled people. To help persons with disabilities become financially stable, robust, and self-sufficient, Safia Foundation takes the initiative of micro financing for persons with disabilities of Sialkot.
