MyC4 - Microcredit: It’s not Charity


A lot of charity sites simply amount to temporary help for permanent problems, and they offer little more than a way for fortunate people to feel less guilty about having been born in a developed country. MYC4 offers none of that. Instead, MYC4 gives everybody involved something to take pride in. By allowing people in developed countries to make business loans to those in the less developed parts of Africa, there’s a real sense of purpose there.

Your fortune in having been born in England or the US or Australia is not something to be ashamed of, but an opportunity to be grateful for. We were born in these countries so that we could help to improve the less developed countries, not by way of hand outs that feed a family for a day and leave them hungry tomorrow, but by sharing our own opportunities with them.
