Buy Products & Services from local Microfinance Clients
Microfinance clients are typically portrayed as small-scale businesses that are run by women who do basket weaving or handmade crafts. While this may reflect some of the products sold, you should know that there are many more out there. Goods and services that you can purchase from microfinance clients are often ones that you already obtain from other merchants; why not choose to support a good cause with your buying power instead? This can include going to a microfinance client’s mechanic shop to get your car fixed, cab service when you are arriving from the airport, or beauty parlor when you feel like pampering yourself. You can hire a wedding planner, choose your child’s daycare, buy clothing, contract cleaning services, and so much more. On the ACCION San Diego’s website and link below you will see an extensive list of businesses that belong to their microfinance clients, shop & have fun!
