Why GDO

Credit that works for families

  • An alternative to moneylenders

    Many of our clients were in debt to moneylenders charging exorbitant interest. GDO gives them access to fair, regulated credit.

  • Built around women and groups

    About 80% of borrowers are women, supported by saving groups and community organisations.

  • Repeat borrowers keep returning

    More and more clients repay a loan and take another — a sign the credit is working. GDO reports a 99.6% recovery rate.
