SaveAct works with partners to support entrepreneurship in townships, with a focus on women and youth and other vulnerable groups. SaveAct is a leader in accessible finance for people working towards launching and sustaining their own enterprises. This is achieved through financial education and training in a 'savings group' methodology that equips members to reduce debt, manage household finances and access lump sums to invest in enterprise. This is complemented with: livelihood pathway identification, career pathing, enterprise training and access to business-in-a-box opportunities.
