Forbes features a cover story on Jacqueline Novogratz of the Acumen Fund.
From original article:
"Instead of shoveling aid dollars to causes or governments that give away life-sustaining goods and services, Acumen espouses investing money wisely in small-time entrepreneurs in the developing world who strive to solve problems, from mosquito netting to bottled water to affordable housing. It's a new twist on the old adage about teaching a man to fish, except that Novogratz wants to build an entire fish market."
