Supporting Lend With Care - September 2023
Fri, Sep 29th 2023 at 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
We welcomed Andy and Toria Hardy to speak to the club of their forthcoming challenge to cycle from Cambodia through Thailand and finishing in Laos to raise funds for Lendwithcare.
This charity provides funds to local entrepreneurs to grow their businesses. Toria explained she lent £15 and this is repaid by the recipient. As money is repaid she funds another project. Over the past 2 years they have helped 55 entrepreneurs, lent £715, helped 145 people and created 59 jobs. All loans repaid to date!
Thank you for enlightening us on this worthy project!
