To empower the poor in developing countries using innovative savings and microcredit programs, business training and spiritual development.

1. Five Talents was created as a long-term response to the ravages of poverty.
2. Five Talents guards the dignity of the poor, many of whom survive on $1 a day.

Five Talents gives people the opportunity to lift themselves out of poverty by providing access to basic savings and microcredit services built on their trusted community traditions. We provide biblically-based business training to help the poor start small businesses and begin to build their future. Five Talents supports indigenous institutions working in microenterprise development and work primarily through the following services and programs:

• Consulting services, training and education for savings and microcredit programs.

• Materials that promote Biblical business principles.

• Loan capital for the poor.
