Microcredit program is one of the significant and effective tools that have been used to struggle with poverty recently. Microcredit program has been proposed as a solution on feminization of poverty through increasing income level of women. The aim of this study is to determine whether microcredit program is effective on diminishing women poverty in the province of Mugla. The data were obtained via face-to-face survey method from 162 women who had microcredit from Mugla branch of Turkey Grameen Microfinance Program. Main descriptive statistics were demonstrated and analyzed in detail within the study. According to study results, microcredit program gave an opportunity to women to earn their own money.
