SeaMo and Fortunato Vega would like to invite you to a VIP reception
and the premiere of To Catch a Dollar (TCAD). This one night only
event, screened via simulcast to hundreds of theatres across the
nation, will spotlight the promise of microfinance to lift people out
of poverty in America through stories of brave women entrepreneurs.
With millions of microloans to rural entrepreneurs in developing
countries, Nobel Prize–winning economist Dr. Muhammad Yunus and
Grameen is now audaciously importing its methods to the bastion of
first-world capitalism: the U.S.A. First stop: Queens, New York.
Following the film, a panel featuring Nobel Laureate Dr. Muhammad
Yunus, Kiva.org President Premal Shah, special guest financial
powerhouse Suze Orman, and moderator Maria Bartiromo, will explore the
issues covered in TCAD and the opportunities presented for taking
action. They will also walk audience members through the plan for a
campaign, and make a clear call to action. The event will also include
special video appearances by Hugh Jackman, Matt Damon, Russell
Simmons, and others.
