Today we showcase one of San Diego's most impactful home-grown microfinance non-profits, Women's Empowerment International (WE). Since 2003, WE has funded close to $3 million in business loans and financial empowerment projects in nine countries, including five San Diego initiatives.
One of today's speakers is a special friend to La Jolla Golden Triangle Rotary: co-founder Winifred Cox, who credits some of our members with helping get WE off the ground and running.
It's an honor to welcome WE co-founder Win Cox and WE board member Linda Kurtz for their program entitled: "Investing in Economic Empowerment for Women: Creating lasting impact to alleviate poverty for women and families in San Diego and around the globe.”
