The Gift of Opportunity

Mercy Corps is turning the ideas of struggling yet determined women into successful small businesses all over the world.

Through the Women's Small Business Kit, we provide training and loans to help women build successful enterprises in some of the toughest places — including Afghanistan, where we've helped thousands of women emerge from years of oppression into days of new opportunity.

This holiday season, choose a gift that inspires your loved ones while also helping women bring their dreams to life.
