EMPOWERING OPPORTUNITY THROUGH FellowSHIP

Koinonia Ventures is the Official Charity of the Coptic Orthodox Diocese of New York and New England

As we continue to empower opportunity through fellowship, it is our distinct pleasure to introduce you Bishoy Nabil Shoukry.

 

Bishoy is 33 years old and lives with his mother and two younger brothers in Tema, Sohag.

His father passed away some time ago and he found himself in the position of provider for his family. Bishoy worked as an accountant and lecturer at his local university to provide for his family. Through his work, Bishoy found that he loved teaching.

​

Bishoy met with Koinonia in September 2018. His plan was to start a tutoring company. After fine tuning his business plan with the KV team, he was granted a loan of 90,000 L.E.

Bishoy made his last loan payment June 2021.

How We Do It

HOW WE DO IT

Ambitious Partners

Our field agents work with local churches in Egypt to identify ambitious people who otherwise lack access to credit. We encourage these people to complete an application.

Access To Credit

We provide interest free loans to business partners after carefully evaluating their proposals and helping them to refine their business plans.

Business Counseling

Our field agents meet regularly with funded partners to evaluate their progress and provide ongoing advice and education. Loan payments are recycled to fund new partners
