Bill Horan and NCC Student Zac Turkel talk to Linda Sama, Associate Dean and Professor at St. John’s University, and the founder of Global Loan Opportunities for Budding Entrepreneurs (GLOBE) – an academic microcredit program that engages students in providing microloans to entrepreneurs living in poverty around the world. In this program, borrowers develop small businesses or expand existing ones with a GLOBE loan, helping themselves out of poverty with dignity. At the same time, GLOBE students learn about managing a social business and glean insights into how business can be a vehicle for positive social change.
