After working for some time in a commercial bank, I fortunately decided to change and focus on solidarity-based finance and social causes ! Originally from Mexico, I am in love with (the real) mexican food, and I'm passionate about helping developping countries, I'm happy to feel useful to the society.
Babyloan is a social business founded by Arnaud Poissonnier, which combines microcredit, solidarity finance and crowdfunding. On Babyloan you make a solidarity loan: you choose a micro-entrepreneur in Europe, Asia, the Arab World, Sub-Saharan Africa or Latin America, who pays you back every month of your loan. In line with the idea of Muhammad Yunus, and his Grameen Bank, we are developing a social microfinance program for microentrepreneurs (mainly women) excluded from the banking system. While the impact of microcredit is complex to measure, we focus on lending low-cost money to our partners, Microfinance Institutions, in order to lower their interest rates. On Babyloan, you can also offer a solidarity gift, or develop your company's CSR approach, via our solidarity challenge platform in particular.
