Mission
Shared Interest’s mission is to mobilize the resources for South Africa’s economically disenfranchised communities to sustain themselves and build an equitable nation.
Shared Interest builds partnerships for change in South Africa.
We guarantee bank loans for low-income communities to construct houses, create jobs, and launch small businesses. This provides a unique opportunity for U.S. supporters to invest in South Africa's future.
