The blight of poverty demands a powerful and practical moral response to its causes and the impact of poverty on people's lives. Supporting groups that are suffering from exclusions in the labour market or a typical employment and help them to manage the unsustainable transitions in the economy.

• Savings and credit schemes are a significant approach in organizing the community. This facilitates the access of financial services to the poor community living in rural and urban centres of which the majority cannot access the loans from financial institutions like banks due to different reasons including high interest rates and lack of collateral. Savings starts from organized groups within the targeted settlements through our mobilization efforts and later form up a network of many saving groups say the youth, women, and village saving groups.
