ShadeFund values Field Partners. They are essential in connecting us with promising green entrepreneurs who would benefit from a ShadeFund loan.

Field partners don’t necessarily need to be experts on business finance or natural resource management -- they simply help us identify qualified loan candidates because they understand the local context for those entrepreneurs. In some cases, our Field Partners may serve as a reference or provide technical assistance, too.
