As you might expect from an organisation that counts community and progressiveness among its core values, we do all we can to share in our success by supporting good causes around the world.

We are particularly passionate about our association with the MicroLoan Foundation, through which we sponsor the Tapiwa Credit Group in Kasunga, Malawi.

About the MicroLoan Foundation

The MicroLoan Foundation is a UK-based microfinance charity that provides small loans, business training and ongoing guidance to groups of women in sub-Saharan Africa. In doing so, it helps them to build businesses capable of sustained success, allowing them to work their way out of poverty, providing much needed food and education for their families.

Our group of 16 women – the Tapiwa (or ‘we have been given’) – supports a total of 96 children by selling maize and conducting various other trading enterprises, all funded by their loans.

How you can get involved

Our Office Manager, Felicity Van Loock, is responsible for our relationship with the MicroLoan Foundation, and would be more than happy to tell you more about their work.

As she puts it:

“At Goodwille we are very excited about our involvement with the Tapiwa group. It is wonderful to know that a relatively small amount of money can do so much and change so many lives for the better.

“We would invite all the companies we know to consider joining us in supporting the MicroLoan Foundation, and make a real contribution to transforming the lives of these women and their families.”
