Alleviating Poverty in Austin and Around the World

Providing microcredit loans to the world's poorest people is a hand up, not a hand out. Learn about Whole Planet Foundation and its network delivering microcredit as a financially sustainable and empowering vehicle to alleviate poverty.

About Our Speaker:

Joy Stoddard is the Executive Development & Outreach Director of Whole Planet Foundation, a Whole Foods Market non-profit dedicated to alleviating global poverty.

Joy has spearheaded fundraising of more than $70,000,000 and has been awarded numerous leadership recognition from Whole Foods Market.
