We loan because...
Having children makes us care even more than before about the children of the world. We want to set a positive example of helping and hope for our own children.

About us
Mothers from Canada who want to help mothers and children around the world. The team captain, Ruth, started by lending only $25 per month (in an effort to stave off lending addiction) and re-lending money as it came in. She reached 100 loans in only 28 months! You can do it too!
