Coimbatore Slums and Coimbatore Microfinance help

Coimbatore Slums and Microfinance help

When researchers met with people living in slums in Coimbatore, during a research, people brought the sufferings that they faced with the private money lenders. With no hope to get small business loans from financial institutions, people living in slums that would like to start up small businesses had to turn to illegal lenders charging a hefty high monthly interest. Moreover, they are totally shut out from professional help on starting and running a small business. In order to let the lives of people living in slums to be self-sustainable, as well as to help parents in Coimbatore to earn enough income to send their children back to school, we will have to decide to start micro credit and micro finance programs in Coimbatore.

In general, the rate of repayment of the loans is expected to be 99%. Micro-credit can be provided to the community for carrying out the following activities:

1. Flower Vending
2. Tea Stall
3. Cloth Vending
4. Sugar Cane Juice
5. Grocery shop
6. Milk Vending
7. Tricycle
8. Vegetable Vending
9. Sewing Machine
10. Idly Shop
11. Bakery

13. Bottle cap

15. Petty Shop
16. Basket Making
