  • Hello!

    You may be interested to know about a new documentary film world premiering at the Sundance Film Festival this month about Grameen Bank America and Dr. Muhammad Yunus work with microfinancing. To Catch a Dollar: Muhammad Yunus Banks on America is a film directed by Gayle Ferraro which follows women in Queens who are improving their lives through microfinance loans. The film does a good job of explaining the concept of microfinancing and the organizing principles of Grameen Bank.

  • Thanks for letting us know about the film!

  • God bless you Dr Yunus

    you are a great man

  • Dr Yunus did not invent the micro loan as an idea . the innovation came from the fact that this genius man believes in moral values. pulling people of of poverty is a big moral value . poverty can be banned from earh by spreading and adapting this idea to other societies

  • In all this game, the devil is losing and at the end will be accused of everything because GOD don’t want any rivals. Conclusion: live at the full in the freedom of GOD (praying in a right form, following the INSTRUCTIONS in the Bible - keeping the 10 commandments - including keeping the Saturday as the 7th day etc.) instead of in the incapacity and limited power of devil because he is just a temporary puppet. Jesus Christ is the savior and hope.

  • banks are never about helping people. it's about establishing debt based economic system. that's why the west decided to reward Dr. Yunus with noble prize.

  • Muhammad Yunus is a worthy nobel prize winner

    a great idea his grameen bank I hope he will help a lot of people

    best wishes from Germany to Bangladesch be proud of these amazing person

  • @RajakarSLAYER Didn't use or listen to BD, I saw a documentary about him, where they interviewed the familes who ¨got help¨, my ass if they got any help.

  • @Sarezh998 No he is not. the corrupt govt of BD is trying to smear him with false allegations. They are afraid that they might be overthrown and people would eventually bring honest people like Yunus in power

  • Im 14 and he's my role model and idol :)
