It’s great to be back in Africa again. I lived in DR Congo from 1981 to 1986.

I’m travelling this week with our Five Talents partners who manage savings groups in Kenya. When I get home, I promise to send you more pictures and a report from the field.
In the meantime, please take a look at our new website at www.fivetalents.org It’s beautiful, with so many images of the faces of entrepreneurs who have started new businesses and can now provide for their families. It also explains more about our “new” savings-based approach (which is still evolving in some programs/countries) rather than a more traditional, credit-based approach that we used when Five Talents started.

Until next Monday morning, blessings,
