VSLA

The Village Savings and Loan Association (VSLA) project is a strategic endeavour aimed at fostering economic empowerment and social inclusion among Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) and their caregivers. By providing access to a range of financial resources, including savings opportunities, booster capital, and business support services, this initiative catalyzes unlocking the entrepreneurial potential of PWDs, enhancing their economic independence, and uplifting their livelihoods. Through active participation in the VSLA project, PWDs are empowered to become integral contributors to their local economies, thereby fueling growth and development within their communities.

Operated within a framework of community support and collaboration, the VSLA project emphasizes inclusive practices that involve not only PWDs themselves but also their families, caregivers, and the broader community. By fostering a supportive environment and promoting awareness of the capabilities and rights of PWDs, the project aims to dismantle barriers to inclusion and create a more equitable society. Ultimately, the VSLA project embodies a vision of empowerment, resilience, and social change, showcasing how collective action and inclusive economic initiatives can pave the way for a brighter future for all individuals, regardless of their abilities.
