Description
Nine years ago, Stacey Edgar had a two-thousand-dollar tax return and a deep desire to help provide economic security for women in need. She knew that of the 1.3 billion people living on less than one dollar per day, 70 percent are women. What she didn't have was a business plan. Or a passport. But that didn't stop her from creating Global Girlfriend, a multimillion-dollar, socially conscious business that has helped women on five continents feed their families and send their children to school.
Global Girlfriends is Stacey's inspiring story of following her convictions, interwoven with the stories of her colleagues and friends-real women all over the world, from Guatemala to Nepal, from Haiti to Uganda. It is also a passionate argument for simple actions we can all take to eliminate extreme poverty. ISBN:9781250003850
