Jamii Bora

Jamii Bora, som betyder "gode familier" på Kiswahili, er en mikrofinansorganisation, der blev grundlagt i 1999 af svenske Ingrid Munro. Ingrid Munro ville hjælpe 50 gadetiggere i et slumområde i Nairobi. Hun gav dem små lån, og de har siden hen i små skridt arbejdet sig selv op ad rangstigen og øget deres indkomst. Jamii Bora har i dag over 300.000 medlemmer, og de fleste af dem, der arbejder i organisationen, er selv Jamii Bora-låntagere.

I organisationens arbejde for at kontakte fattige, i øde områder, bruges eksempelvis GPS-teknologi samt mobiltelefoner,[1] hvilket gør det muligt, at få finansieringen ud til de fattige.
