MicroPlace’s mis­sion is to help alle­vi­ate global poverty by enabling every­day peo­ple to make invest­ments in the world’s work­ing poor.

Our idea is simple.

Micro­fi­nance insti­tu­tions around the world have dis­cov­ered an effec­tive way to help the world’s work­ing poor lift them­selves out of poverty. These orga­ni­za­tions need cap­i­tal to expand and reach more of the work­ing poor. At the same time, mil­lions of every­day peo­ple here in the United States are look­ing for ways to make invest­ments that yield a finan­cial return while mak­ing a pos­i­tive impact on the world. MicroPlace sim­ply con­nects investors with micro­fi­nance insti­tu­tions look­ing for funds.

The result: more micro­fi­nance in the world, sat­is­fied investors, and above all, fewer peo­ple liv­ing in poverty.

A loan of a $20 can allow a poor woman to start a busi­ness and work her way out of poverty. In many coun­tries, orga­ni­za­tions that func­tion like banks make loans to the poor. These orga­ni­za­tions need funds to lend to the poor. Your invest­ment helps fund these orga­ni­za­tions. And, they are will­ing to pay you a return for the funds you invest. You can fight poverty and get your money back with interest!
