Micro lending programs are always great like these. They are usually such a small amount to those that are in more wealthy nations that it’s not a big deal if things go sideways. They also tend to actually help someone out; instead of, just fueling a professional “charity” to keep running. So little can change so much that most people simply never get to understand that. They don’t need to raise billions to change the world it can be done in much smaller steps. Sometimes with even greater effects in the communities around them.
