Micro finance for Internally Displaced Persons


Thank you to GVFoundation,Newzealand. The internally Displaced Persons in kenya who are still living in tents have something to smile about. They have come up in small groups where GVNFoundation,Newzealand has sent funds to VICDA for the IDPs to start small businesses to enable them to restart their lives again. Before these lovely people were displaced during the violence they used to be independent and some of them used to be farmers and business people.
The photo you see is for Irene handing over the funds from GVNFoundation to the 1st group of IDPs to enable them to start their own business.
GVNFoundation has already raised funds for 4 groups and one of the group have received the funds and the other 3 will be receiving the funds tomorrow.
You can join us to rebuild the lives of the IDPs and for more information please visit http://www.gvnfoundation.org.
The GVNFoundation also support other programs in kenya through Eat So They Can Funds such as child education sponsorship,feeding programs,furnishing schools and orphanages etc.
You can join the rest of the world through changing the lives of the needy by hosting a dinner in your house
