Voluntourism in Micro-Finance: Entrepreneurs Create Positive Social Change
Did you know? In the Dominican Republic (alone) the Market for Micro-Finance Loans is over $28 Million? The Average Loan is $361 USD with over 50,000 clients having small loans. Over 70% are women, and payback rates exceed 97% (better than traditional banking). The Philanthropist.org Micro-Finance Study Tours will allow you, your family, your friends, or your co-workers to have the experience of a lifetime. Build real lasting friendships outside of FacelessBook, and experience first-hand how the entire world is truly interconnected!
philanthropist.org is a Micro-Finance technology platform which allows everyday people to function as philanthropists (small scale donors and socially-minded investors) to directly and efficiently interface with workerteers (entrepreneurs and volunteers) for the purpose of small dollar transactions with maximum efficiency and minimal transactional overhead.
