MICROFINANCE IS A SUTAINABLE POVERTY ALLEVIATION STRATEGY

How would you survive with only one dollar a day? How would you manage such a small amount of money to not only pay for food, but also, for school, for your home or for an emergency? While living in Guatemala, the filmmakers asked these questions everyday. How access to savings accounts and small loans can empower a woman to bring herself and her family out of poverty. Learn how microfinance is helping to provide financial services to the poor.
