Maarifa works to defeat poverty by promoting local products and supporting small scale industry entrepreneurs in DR Congo.  

Maarifa, a Swahili word for Knowledge, works to defeat poverty and grow local prosperity by promoting locally made products and supporting small scale industry entrepreneurs and artisans in DR Congo. We support them to grow and sustain their small and micro businesses through training in financial management, marketing, packaging, market expansion strategies and give them access to capital.

Our activities include but not limited to:

1.    Personal and business Financial Literacy training.

2.    Formation of support or accountability groups of young entrepreneurs.

3.    Connect entrepreneurs in support groups to Microfinance Institutions for small business loans.

4.    Organize Business Expos to promote locally made products.

5.    Facilitate the creation of Cooperative markets for locally made products.

This way, we help local communities drive their own economic development by creating job opportunities for themselves and others around them, especially the youth. As a result, they build more prosperous and peaceful communities.
