During the meeting Mike Miller, with Mennonite Economic Development Association (MEDA), gave presentation on the topic “Creating Business Solutions to Poverty.†He started his presentation with a short video entitled PovertyCure, which can be found on the Henderson Nebraska Blog at http://www.hendersonnebraska.com/blog/.
MEDA has been designing and implementing innovative and effective market-driven economic development programs that improve the livelihoods of millions of people living in poverty around the world. Founded by a small group of service-oriented business people, MEDA has grown to become a large, dynamic international organization comprised of thousands of members and supporters across North America and Europe. MEDA believes its work is not done until it is proven to be sustainable, replicable, scalable and measurable.
