It’s an impossibly large task, isn’t it? But, studies have shown that microcredit loans can raise families and entire communities out of poverty. I support such an organization called Foundation for Women. In fact, La Jolla Rotary – of which I’m president – recently funded an entire microcredit bank in Liberia, in Western Africa. Funds are loaned to impoverished women to help them start small businesses. They receive frequent training, and provide an income for their families. They have an astonishing 96% repayment rate, and they are required to save money, too. So the money we invest today, helps many women.
The reason I tell you this story is that to celebrate Mothers Day ArchivaLife will be continuing our support of Foundation for Women to the tune of $10 for every sale and $100 for every 100 new Facebook “likes”.
ArchivaLife is truly a special gift for the woman who means the most to you, and knowing that each purchase helps end world poverty for women makes it even more meaningful.
Help us end world poverty, will you?
