GreenMicrofinance™ (GMf™) harnesses the power of renewable energy to microfinance.  Our work with microfinance institutions (MFI) assists them in providing their clients with clean, renewable energy technologies - solar, wind, hydro, and biofuel - which enhance their physical and economic well-being while reducing
greenhouse gas emissions and deforestation.  As oil prices skyrocket, this will allow microfinance clients from the Bottom of the Pyramid to thrive, not just survive, in the world’s emerging green, carbon-sensitive economy.


While the developing world's contribution to global warming is miniscule, the effects of climate change like flooding, droughts, and desertification, have devastating impacts on these populations, the world’s most vulnerable.  GMf provides educational, technical, and financial services to assist MFI's in the transition to anaffordable and healthy energy future for their clients.

GMf GreenLoans™ for renewable energy technologies are designed to lower MFI clients’ energy outlays:  sun and wind are free, and the raw materials for biofuel can often be accessed or grown locally.  Additional benefits of this energy transformation are improved safety and health, increased productivity, and decreased  deforestation and carbon emissions.  A spectacular win for the MFI’s clients, and all of us on Planet Earth!
