Hope Has a Business Plan

We're helping people displaced by conflict and disaster rebuild their lives faster.

THE NEED
Bridging the Gap Between Relief and Resilience

When disasters strike, families, savings groups, and microenterprises often lose income, assets, and the ability to recover. ​

Humanitarian assistance helps people survive, but access to capital is essential to rebuild livelihoods. Yet traditional lenders see them as "too risky," cutting off the very income they need to bounce back.
