My grandmother, Virginia Swanberg, loves microfinance. At the age of 85, she frequently sends me emails about interesting articles she's read about the field. Today she sent me this email:

I read an article on the scoop on nonprofits. It said there is new web site to check on them. so I just checked on Wokai. The Web site is www.greatnonprofits.org I just did this and found they were mostly in the USA. So I hit San Francisco and the word Wokai The answer was there is no report on Wokai but one in Oakland. Be the first to write about Wokai ! I did not feel qualified to do this. Why not try this Website The article was written by Perla Ni, the founder,. Greatnonprofits.org which reviews nonprofits.
I did not know what category this fit in as nothing fit it on the side bar--you are better at this than grandma.
Two emails in one hour is pretty good for me.

So, of course, I went straight to GreatNonprofits.org and followed her advice! I created a profile for Wokai and I invite you all to review us. Here's the link: http://www.greatnonprofits.org/reviews/profile2/wokai
You can also read more about GreatNonprofits.org in this recent article from the San Francisco Chronicle.
Here's a recent picture of me with my grandparents and mom at San Francisco's new Academy of Sciences. I am so lucky to have such an amazing family supporting me and Wokai! I love you!
