Friendship Bridge (FB) is a nonprofit, non-governmental organization that provides microcredit and education to Guatemalan women so that they can create their own solutions to poverty for themselves, their families and their communities. Having worked in Guatemala since 1998, we support more than 13,000 women annually through our Microcredit Plus program – which combines small loans averaging $300 for four-to-twelve month loan terms and participatory education. Women start, expand or diversify their businesses and learn practical, applicable lessons on everyday topics including business, health and self-esteem. Friendship Bridge offers our programs in 10 departments throughout Guatemala with our facilitators (loan officers) speaking the native languages of our clients.
