Father of Micro Lending, Muhammad Yunus, Awarded Nobel Peace Prize
Posted by: James Hathaway
Wow.....! Micro-credit gets its due. Muhammad Yunus and the Grameen Bank have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.... Clear Path also takes part in micro-credit/micro-granting programs in Cambodia and Vietnam. In Vietnam, we grant pigs to landmine and bomb surivivors to raise. The first litter of pigs is then donated back into the program, therefore repaying the beneficiaries debt to the program...
Here is more on Mahammad Yannus and the Grameen Bank's Nobel Peace Prize award.
