We’re pleased to announce our partnership with Month of Microfinance to provide the technology platform to help microfinance advocates all over the world find other microfinance advocates nearby.
To help us achieve our goal of bringing microfinance advocates together in person:
- Sign up for the beta
- Add “microfinance” as an interest on your profile
- Take a look at other microfinance advocates here.
What exactly is Month of Microfinance?
WHAT: Month of Educational, Awareness and Fundraising events for Client-Centered Microfinance
WHEN: April 1 – April 30, 2013
WHERE: Everywhere
WHY: We are a low-budget (correct that, no-budget) grassroots movement of student organizations with a passion for microfinance and an intense commitment to learning.
HOW: Take 3 Steps
The goal is to organize the world’s microfinance community into real life communities. If that sounds ambitious, you’re right. It is. Finding others passionate about microfinance in cities all across the globe has been a personal pain point for me over the past 3 years traveling, so it’s safe to say I’ve beyond excited to have an imminent solution to this problem. Once Oh Hey World is live (read: before April), you’ll be able to sign up for an account, tag your profile as “microfinance”, check-in to your current location – and see others passionate about microfinance close by.
