You might remember I told you about a project supporting micro-finance in the Phillippines. The invitation was for bloggers and writers to share one sentence on our interpretation of a woman’s investment.
The results are in, and you can enjoy them here:
If you found this interesting or inspiring please do spread the word by sharing the slides with others, and donating if you can.
You can chip in to the fund-raising effort for the micro-finance project here.

This strikes me as a wonderful example of an experiment in writing, blogging, and social media. And like the best forms of experimentation it doesn’t stop here, but will lead on and on to bigger and brighter things.

Hi Joanna – thanks. There’s some excellent quotes there and I like how you put it altogether on a slideshow.
Cath, thanks. It was Jasmin that put them together into the slideshow – an art I’ve still to master…
Joanna, thank you so much. I was just thinking of this project over the weekend and intended to dig through your archives today to find the link and get an update. What a wonderful effort and I will be sure to support financially.
