Since 2010, the Mérieux Foundation supports Xetic, a non-profit organization whose goal is to contribute to the reduction of poverty, the fight against social exclusion and the advancement of men and women on the road of liberty and dignity.
Xetic provides a ready, 100% secure platform through which internet users can lend small amounts of money to micro-entrepreneurs in developing countries, who wish to implement a revenue generating activity but who do not have access to a traditional banking system to meet their financing needs.
