Descriptions: Founded in 1946, Freedom from Hunger develops innovative and sustainable solutions to help end chronic hunger in the developing world. Our self-help programs serve families on the margin of survival-providing them with the resources they need to break free from a legacy of grinding poverty and chronic hunger. In 1989, Freedom from Hunger created Credit with Education, a powerful combination of microcredit and educational services for women who live on $1/day or less. Women with no collateral, no credit history and limited entrepreneurial experience participate in Credit with Education in self-managed groups of 20 to 40. The groups bear joint responsibility for the loans they receive and provide moral support to their members. As women gather each week to repay their loans, they learn about practical and high-impact health and nutrition practice. Informal discussions on health and nutrition topics are facilitated in local languages by country nationals. Lessons include breastfeeding, immunization, hygiene and diarrhea management, HIV/AIDS prevention, child nutrition and pre-conception family planning. Women also learn how to improve their businesses to earn more money. Widely recognized for its success in cost-effectively integrating both credit and education, Freedom from Hunger has also demonstrated statistically significant impact on mothers' economic status and empowerment and on their children's health and nutrition.
