MicroBusiness Mentors (MBM) was founded in 2002 by a group of students at Brigham Young University. These social entrepreneurs were committed to changing the world, and dove into the world of microcredit. They set out with the goal of out to provide sustainable assistance to the Hispanic community in Utah Valley. Their development strategy was based on research that showed a need for small business training and financial services among the low-income Hispanic community in Provo and surrounding areas. Working with Dr. Warner Woodworth, the students launched a small-business training and microcredit program designed to provide opportunities to underprivileged Hispanic entrepreneurs. From the beginning, MBM experienced great success, providing quality training, mentoring, and funding to qualified microentrepreneurs. Program participants started or expanded successful business ventures in diverse areas. Our mission is to prepare and develop the next generation of social entrepreneurs in a way that is going to make an impact to society and to the world.
