Our programs
At Cufa, our programs focus on providing sustainable change within communities, a hand up, not a handout. We supply the most disadvantaged people the tools to break the poverty cycle.
Cufa’s work focuses on alleviating poverty through economic empowerment. We teach young people the importance of saving, empower women to gain financial access, provide employment services, help finance and train rural entrepreneurs and much more!
Our results
We have reached over 4 million people each year through our programs and our results show the impact that we have had on developing communities.
For each $1 of donor funds we create $12.33 of social value and over a 1.75 year period Cufa created over $30 million of social value in the form of jobs, businesses, community-owned banks and much more.
Some of our programs have performed exceptionally with some of these examples including:
Village Entrepreneur – $28 of social value for each $1 invested
Bougainville Youth Project – $13,530,299 social value created
SRIRI Project – 707 people employed
