In 2006 Elshadai Church received a two-year $3,100<br />
grant to establish a revolving loan fund among poor Christians<br />
in Chennai, India. Due to a tsunami and heavy rains, many<br />
church members had lost their homes and belongings in their<br />
slum community. In response, the church established an<br />
income generation project for women in their congregation<br />
through a revolving loan fund. The women started small<br />
businesses in tailoring, candle-making, pickle-making, soapmaking,<br />
and vegetable selling. Once the loans are repaid, they<br />
will be lent again to new participants or as a second loan to<br />
expand existing small businesses.<br />
Revolving loan funds are the most common initiatives we<br />
fund through our Empowerment category. Not only do poorer<br />
Christians get to make decisions about their own future, but<br />
the entire church also encourages them. We favor this model<br />
of income generation because the fund can be self-sustained<br />
by charging interest and holding loan recipients accountable<br />
for repayment.<br />
