n a short span of time, KMBI has attained one more glorious step ahead with 32 years of unrelenting servitude to the poor. Reviewing KMBI’s activities and efforts this year, I can proudly say that 2018 has been a productive year for KMBI.

This is a test of endurance that requires renewal of our minds, so that we can carry on with the faithful work upon which we are called.

KMBI has continued its endeavors to become a venue to share best practices in microfinance and educate the sector on various issues and challenges being faced by the industry. Indeed, God has been faithful to us and to the communities we serve as we raise our flag higher in the competitive realm of microfinance. Four years since the recovery of the KMBI Head Office in Karuhatan, we have been rallying with strong financial and operational standing in 2014. Revenues for 2018 reached PhP 687.98 Million with a 21% increase from the previous year. These numbers alone speak of the kind of foundation that we have—a strong one anchored on solid

ground. The trials and tests we have faced in 2014 became our greatest testimony of God’s grace and mercy. I am optimistic that as we continue to expand in both our financial and non-financial services, we can achieve more breakthroughs and provide only the best services that our Program Members deserve. Throughout the year, the management team has been engaged in substantial partnerships. We have been meeting with like-minded organizations as well as representatives from related industries and networks to explore possible opportunities for the organization. We always think what is best for the collective, not what is most beneficial to an individual. We are halfway through the realization of our “Paghandom sa Damlag: 2020 Vision”. This is a test of endurance that requires renewal of our minds, so that we can carry on with the faithful work upon which we are called. I am thrilled to witness the future unfold right before our eyes!

K More than operational figures, we make sure that our main business stays in place— transformation.

MBI has concluded the third year of its Paghandom sa Damlag: Vision 2020 Business Plan. Indeed, God has given us another year filled with opportunities to continue reaching out to the poor. We would like to thank the Board of Trustees as well as the Management Team for their dedication and valuable contributions to sustain our efforts in achieving our goals. This year, we have intensified our efforts to tap the assistance of other institutions to develop even more cohesive processes and systems. We received technical assistance from the International Labour Organization (ILO) in developing an integrated product for client risk management; we will be working with them in the next several months. We also made changes to the name of the organization, with the addition of “(A Microfinance NGO)” suffix in compliance to the requirements of the Microfinance NGO Regulatory Council (MNRC). While seemingly a minute amendment, this is a significant manifestation of our dedication to partner with the government by being fully compliant with the industry regulations.

We continue to be the leading Microfinance NGO in terms of insurance payout, with over 263,000 lives covered by Microinsurance this year. We stay true to our commitment to offer superior services to our Program Members and their families—services that provide a sense of financial and emotional security. But more than operational figures, we make sure that our main business stays in place—transformation. This year, we held a follow-through of the first Transformational Development (TD) Forum which we started last 2017, as a response to the overflowing positive reception that the first installment received. We signed a partnership with the Asian School of Development and Cross-Cultural Studies (ASDECS) to strengthen exchange of ideas and perspectives on integral transformation in connection to development work. We still have two more years left to hurdle through the realization of our 2020 vision, and it makes me optimistic to see KMBI brimming with passionate leaders and dedicated staff working together to help the poor. Looking at the faith of these people, I believe that the best is indeed coming!

WHAT WE OFFER

102-2

Microfinance is all about giving access to financial services to low-income clients that are mostly self-employed women who would be otherwise excluded from the services of commercial banks. More than microfinance, KMBI seeks to fulfill its main goal of holistic transformation. We do this by touching beyond the financial aspect of one’s life.

FINANCIAL SERVICES

AGRICULTURAL MICROFINANCE PROGRAM (AMF)

INDIVIDUAL MICROENTERPRISE PROGRAM (IMEP)

The Agricultural Microfinance Program seeks to assist and provide loans to farmers and individuals in the farming sector and enable them to further cultivate the agricultural sector in the country.

The Individual Microenterprise Program extends credit provision to graduated Program Members who need additional capital beyond the terms offered by the Group Loan Program.

CAPITAL BUILD-UP (CBU)

MICROINSURANCE

UNILEVER PUREIT LOAN PROGRAM

Capital Build-Up is offered to Program Members to help them build up their financial resources and reduce their vulnerability to crisis and dependence on outside credit sources. The CBU is also intended to serve as additional capital when the client resigns from the program.

Microinsurance is an add-on service of KMBI intended to protect the Program Members in cases of accident or death. This benefit comes along with the Group Loan Program and Capital Build-up.

KMBI sees the importance of health and sanitation in sustaining families and businesses. Hence, the Pureit Loan Program seeks to deliver safe and clean drinking water to the household of both members and non-members.

GROUP LOAN PROGRAM (GLP) The Group Loan Program is the flagship service of the organization. It is a tool to empower women microentrepreneurs through additional capital to help in the development of their microenterprises.

12


2018 Integrated Annual and Sustainability Report

NON-FINANCIAL SERVICES

Entrepreneurial Development Services (EDS) The EDS aims to reinforce the knowledge and enterprising skills of women microentrepreneurs through capacity-building programs and network building to establish their access to wider markets. The EDS also acts as a liaison for business development service offices to determine and better serve the demands of clients.

MASS WEDDING KMBI values the sanctity of marriage and the role of families as integral building blocks of society. Mass Wedding is one of the non-financial services of the organization offered to unmarried cohabiting couples to legalize their union.

WELLNESS CARAVAN KMBI does not only enhance the overall social, economic, and spiritual state of the Program Members, but also values their health and wellbeing. This is done in partnership with like-minded entities to bring health-related programs to the communities of clients.

DALAWANG ISKOLAR KADA PUH Education is highly regarded as a pivotal means of lifting families from poverty. The scholarship is given to deserving children of Program Members who have limited access to higher education due to lack of financial resources.

ADOPT-A-DAYCARE PROGRAM KMBI continues to innovate methods to push for quality education among children, part of which is donating school materials and sponsoring the needs of Daycare Centers.

Disaster Preparedness and Response Management (DPRM) The DPRM is designed to mitigate the impact of natural disasters on the financial state of Program Members.

CENTER LEADERS’ CONFERENCE (CLC) KMBI enhances the leadership capacities of Center Leaders in handling and empowering their groups.

Working Hands to Success

T

his year’s Citi Microentrepreneurship Awards (CMA) recognized KMBI Program Member, Marisa Ganding, as the Special Awardee for Start-up Microbusiness. She runs a spa and wellness center with three branches in Mindanao. Marisa started out as a masseuse in General Santos City, earning PhP 50.00 per massage with a maximum of 5 clients a day. She had worked like this for a decade, and decided to move to a medical spa where she realized that the time was ripe for starting a business. “Compared to working, running a business allows you to help more people,” she said. Marisa started with home services. With consistent efforts, she had managed to draw in more customers, allowing her to save up capital which she used to invest on a massage center with three beds. She discovered KMBI through her mother who is also a member of the program. She used the capital she borrowed from KMBI to support her business needs until her loan amount increased, which was instrumental to establishing two more branches in her area. Marisa hopes to chart the entire Mindanao with her massage services in the future. “Thank you, KMBI. I would not have done it without your help,” she said during her town hall celebration.

PWD: Persevering with Determination

A

s the adage goes, “disability does not equal inability.” This is what the story of Maxima Calud from Kabacan, North Cotabato, wants to tell us. Despite her blindness, Maxima makes and sells hanging nets to make ends meet. Her husband, Joaquin Calud, serves as her eyes and helped her establish their own Sari-Sari store. Because of her disability, Maxima is often shut out of basic livelihood opportunities. She related that some lending institutions are doubtful of her ability to generate enough income to pay off her loan. But with KMBI, her disability did not hinder her chance of getting additional capital. She used the loan she got from KMBI to expand her business. A proud member of KMBI, Maxima produces at least 12 dozens of orchid and flower baskets in a day. Her products have already reached prominent areas like Manila, Leyte and Cebu. She also owns a piggery and takes care of the livestock daily. Through regular center meetings, Maxima was able to meet genuine friends in the form of her fellow Program Members. Maxima is an inspiration to her neighbors, customers and business partners. She exudes positivity despite difficulties and gives off a vibe that inspires people to accept what they can’t do and work on what they can. In a gathering of KMBI Program Members last December, Maxima was given opportunity to speak to her fellow Program Members and facilitate a livelihood training. With the help of her family, she shared with other Program Members the how-tos of weaving hanging nets. Despite her disability, she possesses deep willingness in helping her fellows create a living. With her four children, one whom is currently pursuing Nursing, Maxima envisions all of them finishing their studies and reaching the top of their dreams. She does not find her current situation a reason to lose hope; instead, it teaches her to push forward for her family. Maxima may be deprived of sight, but she can certainly see opportunities in the face of handicap.

taff empowerment is one of the main highlights of 2018. In April, KMBI mounted the biennial Leadership Enhancement and Development (LEaD) Camp back to back with the hosting of the 27th APPEND Leadership Conference at the SMX Premier, Lanang, Davao City. These two events were dubbed together as CAMPS 2018. The LEaD Camp, themed “Live a Holy Life; Accomplish God’s Purpose!”, was a congregation of over 800 KMBI staff nationwide. The championship of the KMBI Sports Fest was also held during the festivities. KMBI was also selected to host this year’s APPEND Leadership Conference, attended by more than 1,300 practitioners from various Microfinance NGOs. With the theme “Past Meets Future” centered on Hebrews 12:1-2, the assembly traced the roots of microfinancing in the Philippines back to humble beginnings of APPEND and its contributions in the sector in the past three decades, as well as the various challenges and opportunities that the whole industry awaits in the years ahead. The CAMPS 2018 mirrors KMBI’s continuous commitment to strengthen competence and leadership capabilities of its employees and partner organizations.

In 2018, 3,200 seedlings were planted in celebration of KMBI’s 32nd anniversary. The tree planting activities were held in all areas of operations of KMBI nationwide. Staff from the Credit Operations Group, support groups, the management team and the Board of Trustees volunteered to participate in this concerted effort for the environment. KMBI works with two people’s organizations and the Community Environment and Natural Resources Office (CENRO), to implement the Enhanced National Greening Program (E-NGP). Through the E-NGP, the organization gives concrete support to the government’s reforestation efforts and through the partnership with people’s organizations, the Samahang Pangkaunlaran ng Barangay Camachin and the Cacao Upland Growers Inc., KMBI engages and empowers the local community. This reforestation stint is a long-term commitment of the organization to local communities, in which KMBI vows to plant fruitbearing seedlings in denuded areas for the benefit of the generations to come. In time, the locals can harvest these fruits and sell to the local market, thus giving them resources to explore more business opportunities that will bring economic development to their area.

SOCIOECONOMIC AND SPIRITUAL PROGRAMS

Alongside the provision of financial services, social protection programs that address differing needs of communities and member families are carried out yearly. In 2018, 290 scholarships were released to benefit graduating college students. Through the Dalawang Iskolar kada PUH program, KMBI helps Program Members send their children to college in the hope that the scholars be able to reach higher and bigger dreams once they complete their education. KMBI was able to provide about 30 more scholarships this year than in 2017. KMBI also continues its Adopt-a-Daycare program. This year, the organization partnered with 84 Daycare Centers in its areas of its operations. More than 4,000 young children received school supplies, toys and other gifts as well as benefited from story-telling, and other activities.

Primary learning institutions are critical to inculcating good values to children in their formative years. KMBI aims to help these institutions in facilitating character building through the Adopt-a-Daycare Program. With this program, KMBI provides the facility needs of Daycare centers and donates materials to aid in the learning process of students.

Addressing physical, spiritual, and economic wellbeing, the caravan is meant to impart a well-rounded view of wellness and help improve several aspects of the Program Members’ life. The three areas of implementation in all had 837 attendees. The organization’s entrepreneurial training programs on the other hand has almost 58,000 beneficiaries, the majority of which attended the Branch Financial Literacy Training.

With the KMBI Development Foundation Inc. and APPEND Inc., the Iponaryo, livelihood workshops, social enterprise, business permit, online marketing and other relevant topics of training were also made available to select Program Members. KMBI mounts training programs based on the profile and needs of its Program Members.

MAKING DREAMS HAPPEN

Spiritual development is of course a focus at KMBI. The Integral Transformation Framework of the organization encapsulates the view that development work for a Microfinance NGO must also include spiritual formation programs and not only financial services.

The Dalawang Iskolar kada PUH Program provides opportunities for graduating college students to finish their course. Each branch is allotted a maximum of four (4) students to fund. With this grant, Program Members are given a chance to fulfill their dreams for their children.

Several non-financial programs are consistently implemented for the benefit of Program Members. The Center Leader’s Conference (CLC) was held in all 54 existing branches and was able to empower a total of 6,914 center officers. The CLC hones the skills of center leaders as better entrepreneurs, mothers, and members of the community.

KMBI regularly conducts Mass Weddings to facilitate union for unmarried cohabiting couples who otherwise have no financial means to get married and enjoy the legal benefits of matrimony.

Meanwhile, the programs for Mass Wedding are annually anticipated by Program Members and staff. The opportunity for partners to be united in the bonds of marriage has been essential in sanctifying their union, especially for those who cannot afford to do so. This 2018, mass wedding activities have seen over 400 couples wed. For its staff, KMBI carries out a holistic spiritual formation program through weekly Accountability Group (AG) meetings, Daily Morning Reflection for branch staff, memory verses, monthly corporate fellowship and prayer time. At least an hour a week of corporate time is allotted to the program. A Spiritual Support Program, which runs through the help of mentor pastors in the community where branches operate, boosts the implementation of KMBI’s initiatives.

Center meetings are at the heart of KMBI’s microfinance operations. This program caters to Program Members in the aspect of values formation that is critical to building harmonious relationships with their families, peers, and communities.

These spiritual development programs are in place to ensure that staff are not just growing professionally, but also in all other aspects of one’s being.

Meet KMBI’s 30 Outstanding Program Members These are women whom KMBI prides to call its outstanding Program Members. They are called such for their loyalty and unwavering support to KMBI’s programs. In line with KMBI’s 32nd anniversary celebration, the organization paid back to its 30 recognized outstanding Program Members who flew to Manila to personally meet the KMBI Board of Trustees, the Management team and key officers behind KMBI’s products and services. The Program Members also went onboard for an intensive enterprise training, equipping them with advanced business skills that they can impart to their peers once they return to their homes. Apart from enterprising skills, this training was also aimed at leadership enhancement to further their influence and contribution to their communities.

OUR STAKEHOLDERS 102-17, 102-40, 102-42, 102-43, 102-44, 404-3

Stakeholders give value to our transformational work as much as we pay back to the communities that we serve. These stakeholders include industry partners, suppliers and networks, clients, staff, local communities, and regulators. Industry partners, suppliers and networks At KMBI, we affirm transparency and open communication. Our partners add value to the work that we do by investing their resources to the organization. We keep close lines with our partners by celebrating years of connectedness and fostering long-term healthy relationships which are integral to sustainability. We ensure that our suppliers share the same goal and values with KMBI, and that they have a deep understanding of the business of the organization. We enforce strict policies on selecting suppliers as part of our commitment to maintain fair and healthy competition in dealing with vendors, taking into careful consideration various aspects such as environmental impacts and labor conditions, among others.

Staying true to one of our Strategic Directions, we affirm consistency in the effective and truthful delivery of our transformational services to those who need it most. Local communities Driven by the need to extend our services beyond our Program Members and their families, we continue to devise programs that cater not only to our clients, but also to the people living within the localities that we serve. We aim to build community leaders now and in the future by equipping them with adequate resources to help them move out of poverty. Among our community endeavors are educational assistance, reforestation, hospitalization, and many more. Employees

We pay high regard to the networks that we belong to, as they play a significant role in getting microfinance institutions—who could otherwise be competitors in the industry—to work together and achieve the common goal of eradicating poverty. We do this by taking a proactive approach to efforts initiated by the networks and responding to their needs.

The workforce is the primary channel of delivery of our services. We capacitate our people by regularly providing internal and external training, semestral performance appraisals, and competitive incentive schemes to encourage maximum productivity among staff. We hold weekly accountability groups and devotions to maintain healthy bonds and ensure that employees are looking out for one another, in an effort to instill solidarity within working groups.

Program Members

Regulators

Our main business would not be possible without clients patronizing our services. We allocate a huge share of our net income to strengthen the provision of non-financial services. We value social responsibility and strive to make a long-term positive impact on the communities where we operate.

We at KMBI give utmost respect to industry regulations. Regulators are set in place to manage microfinance operations in view of upholding the highest degree of ethical, moral, and corporate standards. We are committed to becoming responsive to the needs of the governing entities by keeping abreast of movements within the industry and securing compliance with local regulations.

ERRATA:

From page 16 1

The page 26 of the 2017 Annual and Sustainability Report contained a discrepancy wherein the number of Microinsurance (MI) enrollees indicated was 466,565. Correct figures are now shown on page 16 of this report. 2 For copies of the 2018 Annual Report with USB packaging, the latter indicates 263,412 “Lives Insured”, which was determined using a different formula. The correct number of MI enrollees is shown on page 16 of this report, and was calculated using a formula recommended by the Finance and Accounting Department. The same computation method for the number of MI enrollees will be adopted from this report forward.

I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
