The Great Blog Off - Fundraiser for Accion International
Beginning at midnight eastern standard time, Gina, myself and lots of guest bloggers will be posting throughout the next 24 hours. The Great Blog Off is an opportunity to do something good. The Business Channel will be supporting Accion International as our charity. Here is an opportunity for you to donate money to a great organization that is the business of helping people. The mission of Accion is:
To give people the tools they need to work their way out of poverty. By providing microloans, business training and other financial services to poor men and women who start their own businesses, Accion’s partner lending organizations help people work their own way up the economic ladder, with dignity and pride. With just a little capital, people can grow their own businesses. They can earn enough to afford basics like running water, better food and schooling for their children.
Accion helps small businesses all over the world to become established through small, manageable loans and business advice. This concept of microlending is fabulous and their payback record is impressive. Take a moment to visit their site and make a donation! Enjoy The Great Blog Off. Feel free to leave a comment and tell us what you think. We have some great guest throughout the day, so stay close. Have a great Friday!
