I have worked with this organisation for 3 years. It has been the best and exclusive experience working with the organisation. The organisation is devoted to the cause of working for the poor. They work in the remotest of the areas and with the poorest of the poor which often is left out by others. In different pats of the globe Trickle Up is working effortlessly to bring people out of poverty with an one-to-one approach, stratezing, developing livelihood plan and building in a sustainable livelihood for each household. The biggest impact they make to these households is making a change in their attitude, building a positive attitude and confidence.

Trickle Up is one of the only organizations around that has consistently been committed to the poorest of the poor. These are the people who are at such stages of poverty and marginalization that there is a lot of work to be done in training, vigilant follow up, community-building, confidence building, etc even before they are in a position to receive small loans, start small businesses, etc. It takes an enormous amount of effort and vigilance to get people at the base of the Base of Pyramid into a stable enough position that they can move on to higher levels of support for poverty alleviation. TU knows what kind and how much effort and commitment it takes to move one person out of the realm of "poorest of the poor" -- and they do it painstakingly. There is the push these days to look for scaling mechanisms that allow us to apply formulas and solutions en masse, because this work can be so slow and painstaking. While that need is critical, there are some aspects of poverty alleviation that simply cannot be scaled...there are community specific, place/time specific issues that need to be addressed on the ground in order to truly have a lasting impact. TU seems to have struck the balance between using scalable mechanisms and confronting the reality at a local level. They are one of the best around.

I know micro financing works but the way trickle up has reached the wretchedly poor and empowered them, speaks volumes about the model they use. The model put forward by trickle up works as the many many projects they have invested has been very successful.
