Hi everyone. Yesterday I mentioned in class an organization in Mozambique called VillageReach that I thought was an excellent example of getting to the root cause (or at least one of the root causes) of poverty in that counntry. It is also a wonderful,nuanced, illustration of how a creative and passionate social entrepreneur can integrate business and social models to create a sustainable engine for change. I encourage you to check it out here.
