This Is EPIC was founded in Guernsey, and this continues to be its home. We have projects in Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Our partners work with their local communities to implement and develop the VSL projects. Our local partners bring awareness of the VSL methodology through meetings with local leaders and the whole community.
We have been working with our DRC partner ‘ACTORS’ since 2014 to help vulnerable people rise from poverty through financial inclusion. With more than 70% of the population living in poverty, VSL groups are needed more than ever.
This Is EPIC works closely with our Ugandan partner ‘READ’ to understand the needs of the local communities and develop projects which best meet those needs. The success of those projects has been demonstrated as the groups who continue to grow in confidence and develop new income-generating ideas as well as the development of a number of community projects, including farmer field schools, co-operatives and new schools.
Our projects bringlong-term positive change to the lives of the poorest communities in the world.
