Jacqueline Novograts on investing in Africa’s future

June6

A part of me wishes I could’ve came up with a catchier title, but to me, anything Jacqueline Novogratz is catchy enough.

I’m wary that a lot of non-profits reap incredible benefits for it’s board, and at the same time, are inefficient because they lack business sense. But with kiva, and other micro-financing organizations, we’re definitely on track.

Go ahead and admit it. Aid, welfare, donations, and any kind of handout is a big reason why a lot of our problems are perpetuated. I have no solutions to add just yet. You’ll have to wait for my September issue. :)

With love from San Jose California,
One, Winnie Tong
