About the Organization
HISTORY
ACCION International was founded in 1961 to address the desperate poverty in Latin America's cities. Begun as a student-run volunteer effort in the shantytowns of Caracas, ACCION today is one of the premier microfinance organizations in the world, with a network of lending partners that spans Latin America, the United States and Africa. Over the last four decades, ACCION has built a tradition of developing innovative solutions to poverty. Though ACCION's approach has changed over the years, the driving force behind our mission remains the same.
It is still the people we serve - the women and men of our impoverished communities - who shape our work. It is their courage and ingenuity, and the tremendous power of their dreams that continues to inspire us and to renew our dedication to the search for new and better solutions to poverty.
MISSION
The mission of ACCION International is to give people the tools they need to work their way out of poverty. By providing "micro" loans and business training to poor women and men who start their own businesses, ACCION's partner lending organizations help people work their own way up the economic ladder, with dignity and pride. With capital, people can grow their own businesses. They can earn enough to afford basics like running water, better food and schooling for their children.
In a world where three billion people live on less than $2 a day, it is not enough to help 1,000 or even 100,000 individuals. Our goal is to bring microfinance to tens of millions of people - enough to truly change the world. We know that there will never be enough donations to do this. That's why ACCION has created an anti-poverty strategy that is permanent and self-sustaining.
