Hey Evan, thanks for joining! I was hoping that you could encourage other students at University of Nevada to follow your lead and join us here at MFI Connect. We are trying to provide opportunities for student involvement in microfinance, starting with the Microfinance Simulcast and the 2010 Microcredit Summit in Kenya this April.

Thanks so much in advance for help and contributions,

Chris
