Micro Finance
SJF Microfinance Program. SJF realizes that more than 17.50% population of the country and above 70% people living in rural areas are still far behind to fulfilling their basic needs, such as – proper food, minimum standard shelters, education of their children, proper treatment and other potentials of life due to their extreme poverty. The only way to overcoming this situation is to improve the economic conditions of those population through involving them with economic activities and increase their income level. |
