It was an honor to host Nobel Prize Winner Muhammad Yunus at Babou and the Children’s Academy this past Saturday. Professor Yunus is the father of modern microfinance and founder of Yunus Social Business, the key partner in funding and implementation of our three social businesses.

The primary purpose for Prof Muhummad’s visit was to see the work going on at Babou, and of course, to give his feedback and counsel.

Of course, there is always time for selfies!
