• Invest in self-help/resident driven projects in Colombia, rather than programs. All donations go entirely to the residents on the Mutuality Platform and all participants are committed to paying it forward to other members in their community. The participants are leading their efforts and helping others. From panderia shops, small catering businesses, participants are innovative and can drive themselves out of poverty. You can designate if you want your donation to go to an individual project in Colombia, or to this broader self help fund. New projects and countries will continue to be added.

About The Project

Entrepreneurship is how 80% of the global society survive. Most micro-ventures, bigger ventures from Colombia are selling food, have panderia shops, mini dry goods stores and selling clothing. The result of the the cash investment is that the participants are able to buy more product, thus increasing their profit. This increase in income is sustainable, month to month. A small capital infusion also allows the participants to forgo credit and allow some to buy wholesale, decreasing their expenses by up to 20%.


Paying it Forward

To date thousands of other families have received assistance from participating families. Mutuality is the key. Anyone donating will get updates of any positive impacts and additional donations by others.  Watch the ripple effect that your investments catalyze.
