16-year old Marcus has a nice house in Florida and a mother who loves him. But he isn't doing well. He's bored with his friends. He's rude to his neighbors. His mother worries that, just maybe, her son isn't a very good person.
Nearly 3000 miles away in Guatemala, Elisa isn't doing well either. She needs money! Not for herself—for her goats. If she had some money, she could build a barn to protect her goats from wild animals. She could buy a machine to make cheese to sell in the market. But banks don't lend money to 17-year old girls.
Gloria wasn't doing well after her husband died, but she tried hard to make a better life for herself—and her friends. She worries about her friend's son Marcus, though. What will make him care about more than pizza with extra cheese—and himself? Then she gets an idea…
When these three people with nothing in common are connected through a microfinancing website, the power of doing good changes all of them—and their lives—forever.
