Global Prosperity Now

EMPOWERING WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS AROUND THE WORLD

Global Prosperity Now is deeply committed to the empowerment of women in the U.S. and around the globe as a means for social change. Through Kiva, we contribute funds to women entrepreneurs, who we believe are key in the broader fight against global poverty.

GIVING REINVENTED

Moving beyond charity

Dreams are universal. Opportunity is not. Through Kiva, we support women entrepreneurs living in poverty around the world. Rather than providing material goods or cash to buy them, our contributions empower women to start and grow their businesses. These businesses become reliable sources of income and create independence and opportunity for these women, their families, and their communities. We believe this approach to be the most comprehensive, sustainable, and scalable solution to global poverty.

OUR CONTRIBUTIONS

Creating a global impact

The Global Prosperity Now leverages the ingenuity, passion, and energy of entrepreneurial women around the globe.

At Global Prosperity Now, we assist the poorest of the poor, particularly single mothers, with starting or expanding a small business with micro-funds and business training. In developing countries, microfinance is the catalyst that has helped millions to establish their own businesses.
