Capital Sisters International is a small nonprofit based in Golden, Colorado, focused on expanding access to credit for impoverished women so they can pursue income-generating activities and support their families with dignity. The organization channels capital to international microfinance institutions, which then provide loans to women in developing countries who lack access to credit. This intermediary model aims to create sustainable pathways for women to improve their livelihoods through business activity. Its work situates the organization within the nonprofit sector and the broader microfinance ecosystem, connecting donor resources with MFIs able to reach underserved communities. The beneficiaries are impoverished women seeking to establish or expand income-generating ventures, with MFIs acting as the lenders on the ground. Capital Sisters International operates with a small staff to fulfill this mission from its Golden, Colorado base.
