Opportunity International Network

When poverty is a way of life, people’s potential is often overshadowed by the struggle to survive. But when equipped with the right tools, even the most vulnerable are able to change their own world and create a better future for their children. Opportunity International stands alongside over 2.5 million clients with a mission to provide those tools—the financial products, educational programs and business training they need to move beyond poverty and build a more stable, secure and fulfilling life.
