Lifeline’s branch Mangammanapalya is situated on the outskirts of Bangalore’s city limits. Flooding is a daily issue in this area. There are no gutters or sewage lines going through the neighborhood. Therefore rain water and sewage water fill the streets and the residents homes. Many people suffer health risks due to the flooding, such as malaria and skin infections. The government refuses to help because the poor in this area cannot afford to pay taxes. Therefore little is being done about this issue.

One of the biggest impacts microfinance has on a community is the welfare of the children. When women start up income generating businesses the profit they make goes to their kids. With Lifeline’s loans, our borrowers are able to send their children to school, afford regular medical checkups and make sure they are properly nourished. When you invest in microfinance, you invest in the future of children.
