The capital provided to WWN will support microloans to several borrowing groups, the first two which include a group of 5 sho sho’s (grandmothers) who care for a number of orphans. They intend to expand their existing market-based businesses. Additionally 5 innovative young orphans will begin their business careers using microloans to support a number of activities, including a cobbler business, hairdressing, welding, tailoring and carpentry.
