Review for Womens Microfinance Initiative Corporation, Bethesda, MD, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

There are so many positive attributes to this initiative, it's difficult to know where to begin. All the donations go directly into the loans. There are no U.S. staff salaries. Robyn Nietert, founder and president, devotes fulltime to the program and guides the work of other volunteers and interns. She travels to East Africa to assess progress and inspire local participants. The program has made a difference in the lives of a growing number of women and their families in East Africa and is a model that should be replicated in many other areas.
