Rooted in community.
Built on trust.

HPE was established by Curtis B Cline and led on the ground by President Madam Teddy Chuwa — a woman who grew up in Sambarai Village and knows firsthand what economic exclusion looks like. Together, they built a lending model that puts discipline, transparency, and community accountability at the centre of everything.

Our Lending Model

Disciplined capital. Real results.

HPE is not a full-service bank. Our focus is providing small business loans that supply operating capital for women and asset-based loans for transport operators.

The first loan begins at 100,000 TZS at 6% interest for 90 days — intentionally small to shift participants from a survival mindset to a business-focused one. Interest collected is reinvested into new groups.
