Accion International
ACCION International is a non-profit organization founded in 1961 whose mission it is to provide small loans and technical assistance to those around the world who are under-serviced by local banks. As a microfinance organization, ACCION's provides loans, sometimes as small as $75, to help small business owners start or maintain their companies when traditional banks won't offer them a loan. ACCION originally operated solely in South America, and has now expanded into Africa, the United States, India and China.
