Who You Are Helping

The Crisis of Livelihood: A Call for Help

61%

Workers globally are in informal employment, lacking job security or consistent income

55%

Working population in low-income countries are self-employed, mostly in small-scale businesses, many of which fail due to lack of support

25%

Small business owners in low-income regions shut down within the first year due to insufficient funding and lack of training

The lack of stable income opportunities forces countless individuals to rely on daily labor, unpredictable charity, or low-paying, short-term work that barely covers a single meal. In these areas, the absence of small businesses and employment opportunities traps families in a cycle of poverty that is incredibly hard to break.

In South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa, small retail shops remain the primary income source for millions, yet tens of thousands remain unlaunched due to poverty. We help individuals and families open their own small grocery shops in their neighborhoods.

With your support, BGR can continue to identify deserving individuals, equip them with supplies and training, and support them through the early stages of their journey. This is not charity that ends with a meal. This is a gift that keeps on giving, every single day that shop remains open.
