Phase I: Communications Uplinks Many populations in remote areas are without dependable communications to support humanitarian on-site programs, or distance contact with remote supporters. LFH partners will develop an easily installed and operated robust communications core utilizing a satellite uplink to facilitate telemedicine, educational, commerical and artistic programs. Phase II: Community Infrastructure LFH partners will contribute their expertise, wealth and capabilities to develop micro-community centers that include vocational schools, arts/cultural centers, medical clinics built around LFH communications centers. Working with private sector partners and NGOs, LFH will help finance infrastrucure and support on-going partnerships to create markets for art and music, goods, training and other vital connections. Phase III: Build-Out Each project undertaken by LFH will anticipate a build-out stage, where private sector partners can build and sell homes, shops and other commercially attractive enterprises that use sustainable building materials and create jobs for the local population. LFH arranges investment insurance, both government and private, to make the investment attractive to potential partners. LFH will also help create locally governed credit cooperative to administer the titling, lending and administration of land/home sales including Sharia-compliant models. |
Credit for Hope: Underwriting Local Credit Cooperatives For Micro-Loans AD | 02.09.2007 | 14:36:4413509 | Working with its partners, LFH developed Credit for Hope, a trade, barter and finance system that converts assets, services and financial gifts into draw accounts available to local credit cooperatives established through LFH. The credit cooperatives are governed by a board comprised of local residents, and they have access to their draw account to finance any phase of community development. LFH is able to convert the credits in their account directly into assets by pairing donors to the request, or insuring a partner's investment in the community. |
