Seattle is more than a pioneer in coffee and software - it is also a vibrant hub in the world of microfinace.
The Seattle Microfinance Blog covers local microfinance events, microfinance job postings like Kiva Fellows, and international news such as Mercy Corps efforts to arrange micro-mentors for aspiring entrepreneurs in the developing world.
It was encouraging to see creative events such as an Olympics party that was a fundraiser for Wokai, a Chinese microfinance organization.
