Community Pro Ventures

Sundays are awesome because they give us a chance to refuel our exhausted souls with new hopes and new dreams for a new week! Happy Sunday!

Access to finance is often cited as a main constraint to the growth of female-owned enterprises. The CPV Poll shows significant differences in access to financial services for women- and men-owned businesses in developing countries. On average, women have less access to basic banking services such as checking and saving accounts. As a result, many female entrepreneurs rely on their own savings, loans from family and friends, or micro-loans to finance their business needs. However, the small size and short-term nature of micro-loans do not allow women borrowers to make long-term investments in their businesses.

A date like this last year Community Pro Ventures under The Border Hub "Community Youth Champion Cohort 1" was awarded as a winning social enterprise in Busia County that makes credit available to impoverished women who have no access to banking services. Issuing affordable, collateral-free loans, it promotes women's economic participation and carries the hope of prosperity to poor and helps the poor grow tiny businesses to generate income that they can use for basic needs, education, healthcare, and savings.
To my fellow youths today as a we celebrate we are responsible for what we turn out to be. We are responsible for what we wish for ourselves. We alone have the might and power to make a better future for ourselves, not our leaders
We need to ignore the mistakes of yesterday so that we can future on today to make a better tomorrow
Stop whining, complaining and regretting your past actions
You’ve still got time. Take charge now and forge ahead
Happy Youth day to you.
