Temple continues collecting money to grow our Microloan Fund.  This fund will help to finance entrepreneurial enterprises all over the world at 0% interest.
 
Microloans help unbanked individuals to have access to starting a business and earning an income.  On a global level, microfinance can:
Promote better health and education – families who utilize microloans are less likely to pull their children from school for economic reasons.
Help close the gender gap – Over 80% of microloan recipients are women located in countries where cultural and social norms do not support gender equality.
Provide a sustainable source to help low-income populations – Microlending allows funds with charitable intentions to be lent over and over again to additional individuals once it has been paid. Microloans are the gift that keeps on giving.
