About Wokaihttp://www.wokai.org/
Wokai is a charitable organization that enables people to contribute directly to the loans of entrepreneurs in rural China, empowering them to lift themselves from poverty.

Wokai was founded in the Spring of 2007 by Casey Wilson and Courtney McColgan, two young women who met while studying Chinese at Tsinghua University. In their travels between rural and urban China, they witnessed the injustice of China’s burgeoning income gap. Microfinance offered a solution, empowering the poor to work their way towards financial independence. With as small as $150, a borrower can start her own business, accumulate savings, and eventually earn a stable income to pay for education, healthcare, and other services. Moved by the cause, they decided to commit their lives to augmenting this type of positive change in China.
