Meet the Women

Freedom from Hunger’s Credit with Education program is making a fundamental impact in the lives of women and their families. Perhaps the most inspiring evidence of Credit with Education’s positive impact can be found in the words of the women themselves. Upon reading their stories, we hope that you, like us, are heartened by their strength, insight and grace.
