Micro-finance Study Tour



Dear friends,
      As many of you know I have been advising The Hillsdale Effect, a group of high school students who raise money to make micro-loans to women in Guatemala. Over the past four years we have raised nearly $50,000 in loans that transform not only the life of individual women, but the entire community. This summer we will travel to Guatemala to visit villages and the women themselves. We've reached all but $5,000 of our travel expenses and need your help.
     Imagine how this study tour will influence their worldview and what they can do with this new perspective. Put a monetary figure to that vision, and double it. Your contribution can make this trip happen.
     You can use PayPal (username: donation@thehillsdaleeffect.org) or send a check to The Hillsdale Effect c/o Greg Lance, 3115 Del Monte Street, San Mateo, CA 94403.
     Help make our vision of a world without poverty a reality!
     Sincerely,
Marty
