Mobile Money in Haiti was made famous about a year ago by Nick Kristof, who wrote an article about how money transfer through mobile phones was offering hope and financial services to thousands of earthquake survivors.

The goal was to see how we can do it better next time - and leverage the ecosystem of vendors accepting mobile payments to drive economic development as Haiti moves from emergency relief to long term recovery. These vendors are the face of entrepreneurship in Saint Marc.
