Description
Based in Washington, D.C., Grameen Foundation is a global non-profit
organization that combines microfinance, technology, and innovation to
empower the world's poorest people to escape poverty. It has established a
global network of 52 partners in 22 countries that has impacted an
estimated 11 million lives in Asia, Africa, the Americas, and the Middle
East. The Foundation was created in 1997, inspired by the work of the
Grameen Bank of Bangladesh. Its Growth Guarantee Program, initially
capitalized at $31 million when it was launched in late 2005, is a
collaboration with Citigroup that projects leveraging more than $180
million in local currency financing for MFIs globally over the next five
years.
