The 3-year project will benefit more than 150 women entrepreneurs from the townships of Guihulngan, La Libertad and Jimalalud with non-collateralized credit services, with the hope of ultimately stimulating the local economy and help break the cycle of poverty among the poorest.

The project is a joint undertaking of the Rotary Club of Bacolod West and the Rotary Club of Richmond Sunrise, British Columbia, Canada, under the Rotary Foundation of the Rotary International Matching Grant #69406.

The village bank project launch was held at the Guihulngan Branch of Negros Women for Tomorrow Foundation (NWTF) - Project Dungganon, which is the cooperating organization implementing the Grameen Banking methodology for this project.
