Part 6/10:
To facilitate these community-driven efforts, FII uses an online platform called UpTogether. Families share their personal goals, such as improving education, healthcare, or financial stability. In response, FII offers a direct cash investment totaling $3,200 per household over two years—an injection of resources designed to seed actionable change.
Instead of imposing predefined programs, FII empowers households to decide how best to use these funds, reinforcing agency and ownership over their development trajectories.
