Seasonal Food Aid Albania
Mercy-USA periodically provides food and other essential items to Albanian families in need during Ramadan and Eid Al Adha, as well as at times of emergency or natural disasters.
Please give what you can today to help deserving families in Albania.
Turning Sustenance Farming into Profitable Farming with Micro-Financing: In 1996, Mercy-USA began supporting family-based agricultural businesses by providing small interest-free loans. Small farmers have received loans to purchase sheep, dairy cows, beehives, water pumps and materials to build greenhouses. Also, small dairy product manufacturers have received loans to purchase new equipment to upgrade and expand their production capacity.
Together, these projects not only assist the direct recipients of the loans, agricultural inputs and training but also allow them to expand and employ more persons, increase their demand for services and products from local vendors, and, in general, help to stimulate the economy within their communities.
