When a consumer goes to the joinFITE website (www.joinfite.org) and enters the special donation code printed on the joinFITE sleeve packaging, a donation will be allocated to help fund a loan for a woman entrepreneur.
joinFITE, which launched in early 2011, is aiming to help a minimum of 25,000 women in the U.S. and 56 countries around the world to start or grow a business through consumer and corporate active participation in micro-lending. The majority of the microloans will be extended to women in non-industrialized countries, who live below the internationally defined poverty-line.
“We believe that women’s financial independence is crucial to the world, especially in a time of economic uncertainty,” said Jane Wurwand, Founder of Dermalogica. “We hope that more companies like Beautisol take a stand and make a difference and join FITE.”
