Hi there. We are a non-profit organization in the Phil. with almost 17,000 microfinance borrowers. It is our first time to attend an international microfinance summit!
See you all in Bali!

To view a screencast of Jamii Bora founder Ingrid Munro's presentation at InterAction in DC on October 9, 2007, on how the institution has become the fastest-growing MFI in Kenya in reaching the poorest, please visit http://www.microlinks.org/multimedia/Jamiibora/player.html. Jamii Bora began with a group of fifty beggars in the slums of Nairobi in 1999, and has over the past seven years expanded to sixty-one branches, serving more than one hundred and thirty thousand members. Munro aims to reach at least five hundred thousand by 2009. The event was co-organized by the Microcredit Summit Campaign, the SEEP Network and CGAP.
