Mission
Our mission is to reduce poverty and improve health among rural women by combining microcredit with health education. The program provides poor women with non-formal adult training to improve maternal and child health and nutrition, while empowering them economically through access to small working capital loans.
Members utilize their loans for income generating activities such as processing and selling food, operating small shops, selling smoked fish, hairdressing, weaving, and trading in fruits and vegetables. These businesses enable them raise their families' income, improve their children's nutrition and bolster their self-esteem while developing valuable skills. AAPI operates in Arochukwu - Abia State of Nigeria.
