Opportunity International: Impact and Innovation Your Impact Report, Fall 2024 Opportunity International works in partnership to tackle extreme poverty in 31 countries. With your support, we equip people—especially women—with training, access to financial services, and support to enable them to build sustainable incomes, provide quality education for their children, and lead fulfilling lives. Since our founding in 1971, we have listened to and learned from the people we serve, identifying their unique challenges and finding longterm solutions. We are built for innovation—meeting clients where they are and supporting them on the next part of their journey. We are fueled by momentum—scaling and replicating successful solutions to serve more families living in the deepest poverty. Bottom line: every day we serve people so they can thrive. As Opportunity International strives to be a leader in the nonprofit sector, An Opportunity family, Colombia our human-centered work needs to be tied to measurement, evaluation, and impact. Our theory of change is anything but theoretical: it identifies specific programs and activities that result in key outcomes for the people we serve—generational changes like resilience and opportunity, moving from poverty to sustainability. With gratitude for your support, this report shows how Opportunity International’s theory of change impacts families and communities.
