Less than 30% of Indians meet the minimum level of financial literacy as defined by RBI. We aim to increase financial literacy through initiatives such as mentoring and training so that individuals can take informed financial decisions and stay away from harmful practices such as falling prey to loan sharks. This extremely harmful yet common lending practice traps individuals and families in a cycle of debt that is nearly impossible to overcome without proper guidance and assistance.
At Mentors International, we are able to extend small loans, at an affordable interest rate, to those who demonstrate integrity and motivation after attending our business training courses.
This combination of mentoring, training courses, and micro-loans enable an individual to work their way out of poverty with dignity.
