Akhuwat USA
One of Akhuwat’s primary deviations from conventional microfinance is that it charges no interest rates. Akhuwat has sought to base its movement on the principles of Qarz-e-Hassn found in the Islamic tradition, which entails helping someone in need with interest-free loans, a practice favored over charity and doles. While drawing on the tradition of Qarz-e-Hassn, Akhuwat has, over time, grown to incorporate many of the lessons learned from conventional microfinance movements from across the globe, as well.

Remerg
Remerg is a 501(c)3 founded in 2017 to break down the barriers to re-entry and stop the revolving door of recidivism, one resource at a time. We believe that by enabling justice-involved populations to connect with housing, employment, and other community resources, we can empower those individuals to take ownership over their future, turn their lives around, and never return to incarceration. Since our inception, we have successfully helped thousands of formerly incarcerated and justice-involved populations – regardless of race, age, gender or type of offense – connect with critical re-entry resources.

Project 2.0 Foundation
The Project 2.0 Foundation is committed to assisting veterans in their PTSD symptom management while enabling and training them for integration into the successful post-military life they desire. The Project 2.0 Foundation was formed in August 2019 after accidentally finding positive results in a group of Army special operations forces veterans who found they could better manage their PTSD symptoms by training for, and participating in, triathlons and other athletic events. With each other’s encouragement and support, their symptoms became more manageable with their focus on athletics, physical fitness, and proper nutrition as a mission, rather using recreational drugs and alcohol as a coping mechanism. Symptoms of depression decreased or were eliminated entirely. Once our veterans saw their personal success with PTSD symptom management, we heard a chorus of questions and requests for assistance in entrepreneurial opportunities and new (or continued) business education within the civilian world. With the consideration by members of the psychiatric field, we formed this foundation with the mission to bring our findings national and open our program to all veterans. We have gathered a group of psychologists, physical fitness trainers, licensed nutritionists and dieticians, and business leaders and founders in various industries to assist in our mission. The Project 2.0 Foundation program encompasses all aspects of post military life: mental, physical, and financial training and support. The objective for each member is to create a “NEW YOU 2.0” version of themselves, and to obtain the post-military life that they envision for themselves and their families.
