Pro Mujer is a women's development and microfinance organization that seeks to alleviate poverty by providing poor women in Latin America with the means to build livelihoods for themselves and futures for their families through microfinance, business training and healthcare. Established in 1990, Pro Mujer operates in Argentina, Bolivia, Mexico, Nicaragua and Peru.
Pro Mujer currently provides microloans, healthcare and training to 220,000 women, benefiting more than 1 million children and family members. Since its inception, Pro Mujer has disbursed more than $689 million in small loans. Today clients have $18 million in savings, providing a financial buffer for their families in times of crisis.
Women need more than financial services to lift their families out of poverty. For this reason, Pro Mujer offers primary healthcare and preventive health education. By linking poor women with reliable, low-cost medical care, Pro Mujer enables them to retain and strengthen what is often their only source of income, their business, and their most important asset, their health.
Pro Mujer is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization based in New York City. To learn more about Pro Mujer, please visit www.promujer.org.
