- From Claire: "Next meeting, the president of People Helping People, Alex Tuck, will be coming and giving a short presentation. This is a group started just a few years ago by a few young people and they aspire to get more young adults involved by making connections through college campuses. They could use our help advocating for them, educating the community/UVM students (about microlending + poverty), and possibly fundraising. These things could be started with something as easy as tabling in the DC. This would be a really great opportunity to build a relationship with a larger service organization. People Helping People is a microlending organization, providing interest-free loans to people with small businesses to help them work their way out of poverty (mostly in Nicaragua at this point.) There are even possibilities to go volunteer in Nicaragua! Just wanted to give you all a heads up about this so you can start thinking about if this is something we might want to get involved with".
