How you can support TCP Global:

1) Connect us with potential loan partners in marginalized communities like Michelle did in Nepal.

2) Forward this notice so others can learn from a TCP Global borrower how a little capital can have a huge impact.

3) Volunteer to mentor a loan program in a country you know well like E lyse does.

4) Make a donation like RPCVs of Chicago, Kansas City, Long Island and Madison-Wisconsin, and Friends of Colombia and Nepal.

Until Peace Corps is back in the field and Partnership Projects are available, TCP Global is a great alternative for supporting Peace Corps communities around the world.
