KIN GLOBAL SUPPORTS YAI!
Between June 1 – 3, 2009, a group of 200 delegates from around the world convened to attend the Kellogg Innovative Network (KIN Global). The goal of the event was to build a path toward global prosperity. During the event, delegates raised close to $50,000 in support of YAI’s work.
The funds are in support of YAI’s Center for Women’s Empowerment in Sierra Leone and Liberia as well as the KIN YAI Award for Innovation & Entrepreneurship.
YAI’s Center for Women’s Empowerment provides vocational training, small business development workshops, and micro-loans to 500 women every year from the poorest communities in Liberia and Sierra Leone.
As a follow-up, a small group of KIN Global delegates led by Rob Wolcott and Michelle Buck will travel to Liberia to discover additional ways to help reduce Liberia’s high unemployment rate, which currently stands at 75%.
