This past month, Vittana passed a huge milestone – $25 and $50 at a time, the Vittana community made over $100,000 loans to nearly 200 students around the world.  200 students, who would not have otherwise been able to afford college, are now getting their degrees and becoming nurses, accountants, lawyers, mechanics, teachers and much more.

Come celebrate  with the Vittana and SeaMo crews, and bring a friend.

When:  April 2, 6 to 9 pm RSVP on Facebook

Where: Barca, 1510 11th Ave., Seattle, WA

There will be happy hour drink specials from 6-9 pm, and you can’t beat the ambience.  See you there!

Note: There will be a $10 suggested donation to help cap off the end of March Microfinance Madness, Vittana’s month-long lending campaign.
