Visionfund

AuCom is proud to be a part of the VisionFund project in the Selenge Province of Mongolia, north of the capital Ulaanbaatar. VisionFund provides business training and small loans (between US$75 and $600) to finance local entrepreneurs. This micro-enterprise program has created 692 community banks that support locals in grass-roots business like running stalls, handcrafts, recycling rubbish or raising livestock. VisionFund charges only 3% interest to support future programs, and 97% of loans are repaid. VisionFund is successful in building the community as the United Nations has concluded that each loan provides 1.5 jobs.

Upcoming projects

AuCom is currently working on another exciting project to provide clean water to communities in Tanzania.
