PartnerTrips
An Incredible Journey to See Microfinance in Action
Global Partnerships invites you to travel with us to Latin America and experience firsthand how microfinance changes lives. Our next PartnerTrip is to Nicaragua, from November 14 -21, 2010.
Led by a Global Partnerships staff member and local hosts, we'll visit the homes and businesses of microentrepreneurs and talk with them about their struggles and successes--all the while gaining a deeper appreciation of the day-to-day reality in which they live.

Background on PartnerTrips:
Since 1994, Global Partnerships has been escorting travelers to Latin America and currently offers PartnerTrips twice a year to Bolivia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Peru.
Designed for donors who have made or who are considering making a personally significant gift to Global Partnerships,
our PartnerTrips provide an authentic encounter with entrepreneurs who are improving their lives with the help of microfinance.
In both rural and urban settings, we take you off the beaten path to see our in-country partners at work and meet the leadership of these organizations. You will also witness the innovative ways our partners target the root causes of poverty as they demonstrate the financial and social services we help them deliver. Throughout the journey you will gain a unique understanding of the cultures, people and landscapes of these beautiful countries.
