WATCH "WEALTH OF OPPORTUNITY"
More than 2.5 billion people live on less than $2 a day. For millions of families in need, microfinance offers the hope for a successful small business and more: increased economic stability, better healthcare and housing, the opportunity for education, and ultimately, the real possibility of self-sufficiency.

ABOUT THIS VIDEO
We are pleased to present the complete
15-minute film, Wealth of Opportunity: Microfinance in Person.
The production, completed in the fall of 2009, features African and
Indian borrowers whose lives and futures have been transformed through
microfinance. The project is a co-production by Unitus and NonFiction Media.
“Wealth of Opportunity" brings the remarkable social impact of microfinance to life. Every day, people living in poverty are using microfinance loans to start businesses, support their families, and build financial security as well as personal dignity. By telling these vivid individual stories, Unitus demonstrates how small loans can add up to massive social impact. We are proud to support Unitus’ impressive growth in reaching millions of people with the financial tools that can improve their lives.”
Unitus accelerates microfinance growth by finding and developing early-stage, high-potential microfinance institutions (the local providers of microfinance) in high-need regions. We currently work with
22 microfinance partners in India, Southeast Asia, East Africa, South America, and Mexico. In less than a decade, we’ve helped our partners serve more than 10 million families.
