Nonprofit Organization Management - Den Haag, Zuid-Holland, Netherlands
Our NGO is aimed to provide Ugandan people, especially single mothers, with the tools necessary for their personal growth and empowerment. This is done on the basis of micro-loans and teaching handicrafts skills. The idea is simple yet powerful: To raise funds through donations, loan them out as micro credits in Uganda and keep the money circulation in Uganda. The goal is to stimulate small-scale local initiatives with financial, social structural and educational support.POSITIVE DEBT is a student-coordinated initiative, made up of a team in Uganda and a team in the Netherlands. In Uganda, local experts work together in development and empowerment workshops. In the Netherlands, students coordinate with academics, communicate with the Ugandan team and perform fundraisers.
