Fr. Tony Kroll says, “In living with the poor, I have learned a great deal. I learned to break the negative stereotypes so present in our culture about poor people and how they spend their money or take advantage of opportunities given to them. The poor are some of the most responsible, resilient, and strong people–and I am proud to invest with them.”
By making micro-loans through Working Capital for Community Needs, Fr. Kroll says that he has, “seen the positive difference access to credit can make in the lives of the poor. When you invest in microfinance, you are employing people. It is my belief that building up systems that support the poor in this way will lead to a more functional and just society. I actively refer people to invest with WCCN . . . ”
