Welcome
PEER Servants' mission is to transform lives by partnering for economic empowerment and renewal. We are a group of primarily volunteers who partner with indigenous, autonomous microfinance institutions in Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, Latin America, and the Caribbean. These institutions empower the materially poor through micro-enterprise development wherein small businesses are established that can provide for individuals, families, churches, and communities. Our microfinance partners and the micro-entrepreneurs they serve are used by God to add meaning and fulfillment to our own lives. The transformation we seek is not only for them, but for us as well.

Congratulations to Kikielomo Oluwasegun, our 2009 Lydia Award winner! PEER Servants honors the top micro-entrepreneur among the thousands served by our microfinance partners with this annual award. Kikielomo is a chicken wholesaler and educator who uses her business to provide an affordable Christian education to 150 schoolchildren in a Jos, Nigeria slum neighborhood. Click on her picture to read her story and that of the other Lydia Award semifinalists.

We completed our 2009 Walk for Economic Empowerment and raised over $44,000 (and counting) for PEER Servants - 100% of which will go to provide loan capital for aspiring entrepreneurs like Kikielomo. This year we held the Walk in four locations (Boston, DC/Baltimore, Charlotte, and Columbus) and joined hands with World Relief and HOPE International. Together the three organizations raised over $87,000 to empower the materially poor. It's not too late to donate! Click on the WEE 2009 logo, enter the amount you'd like to donate and the name of a walker (if you have one), and you can give online conveniently and securely. Thank you!
