Iduka Microloans

2 Reviews

Our goal is to provide students and their families one more financial tool to help them in their pursuit of higher education. We make this possible by offering an innovative plan anchored in a Web-based micro-lending system that connects lenders with students and schools, and incorporates, whenever possible, student volunteerism as a mean for students to pay back their loans.

We are currently developing and implementing a pilot project in Africa, and we've engaged over 3000 local student intern volunteers and community organizers in almost every single African country since we started in the Fall of 2010.

Would you recommend Iduka Microloans?
Tell Us Why

by Bob M. from _, UG (January 13, 2011)
I strongly recommend the iduka organization to a friend because l have volunteered with this organization as a community organizer, here in Uganda and l have seen some testimonial about it's work, for instance, there is guy in Kenya called Neville,who has prospered in his education through iduka.so this, 100% inspires me to recommend the iduka organization to any friend. Secondary most African parents and their children find a lot of worries especially in issues concerning education .Reason being that most of them are below poverty line and by the fact that education is becoming valuable each and every day,parents have never rested their mind in regarding education of their children .Both parents and their children in African countries have actually suffered this psychosocial torture .But if iduka has come up to micro-Financing education after secondary ,why can't African parents recommend for its further spreading? long live iduka. From Turyatunga Bob Maahe,here in Ugand
