The Giza team created 4,855 job opportunities through the productive household program, 757 through small projects finance, 478 through the truck ownership program and 101 through the direct employment program -- a total of 6,191 job opportunities. Started late in 2010, the Cairo team created 1,983 job opportunities through the productive household scheme and 756 through the small projects finance programs, a total of 2,739 job opportunities.
