Interweave Solutions is a non-profit organization that has been revolutionizing the charitable industry by helping people in developing countries create their own sustainable incomes. Interweave helps neighbors help each other end poverty through self-reliance groups.
Founded in 2006, Interweave has a college fund and provides aid to Uganda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Haiti, Ecuador, and U.S. Schools. This intervention provides a participatory curriculum, micro-loan access and an operating model that empowers self-reliance groups and their members to achieve success in Education, Business, Home and Community. Interweave partners with local organizations to ensure that each group remains active, self-reliant, and expanding.
