Associate Director, Relief and Development Mr Rob Floyd today announced the expansion of UnitingWorld’s Relief and Development projects in West Timor, Indonesia.
Two key projects focusing on economic empowerment through microfinance will continue to be supported and grow in partnership with the Evangelical Christian Church in Timor and its development agency, the Tanaoba Lais Manekat Foundation (TLM).
In a show of solidarity with our Church Partner in West Timor, UnitingWorld has launched the Loans for Freedom Appeal.
Rob Floyd has been working with TLM since 2001, and is excited about the opportunities the new project will generate.
“TLM are currently doing excellent work to empower communities in West Timor through microfinance. These loans don’t bind people down in debt, but empower them to generate an income and build their own future.
“I strongly believe in this project, and urge you to give generously to this appeal.”
