SUCCESS - FULLY FUNDED: This fishing village of over 2,000 residents are isolated and were in need of a store for fishing nets and other provisions. A group of those enrolled in the Peer-driven Change project there found a space and decided to start a village store. They started with $300 that they and other villagers contributed. They were able to open the store in early 2022 and it has now quadruple in size and profitable. They are expanding their vision and continue to save towards larger self-defined goals. It is a wonderful story of the collective effort led by the residents.
