Founder, Womentum

Founder of Womentum which is a crowdfunding platform for women entrepreneurs in developing countries. We are doing things a bit different than what you’d typically see from others in the microfinancing field, such as Kiva and Grameen. We’re not a microloan platform, we’re a pay-it-forward platform. Meaning that if you were to make a donation on our platform you would not receive your money back, rather when the woman entrepreneur becomes successful, she then pays-it-forward for other entrepreneurs in their communities. We’re trying to build communities of women supporting women around the world. Our target market is primarily women entrepreneurs living in poverty or developing countries. We don’t necessarily have a criteria for what that would be but we’re typically looking for businesses where women can do a lot with just $200 to $400.
