Investing in Women

5% of every YARI sale goes directly to an organization we believe in completely.

Grameen America | Microfinancing Women

Grameen America provides small business loans, savings support, and financial training to women living below the poverty line across the United States, with no credit history or collateral required. Most of their borrowers are immigrants and women of color. Since opening in 2008, Grameen America has invested over one billion dollars in more than 110,000 low-income women entrepreneurs across 21 locations in cities including New York, Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago, and San Juan. A woman joins a group of five, completes a short training, and receives her first loan. When she repays, she can apply for more. The model is built entirely on trust, not on systems that have historically excluded her.

Why Grameen. YARI exists because we believe women who own things change things. Ownership starts with access and knowledge. Grameen gives women the capital to begin.
