TED talk for the kids - 2

Another TED talk that I have played for my oldest daughter (14) is the one by Kiva.org founder Jessica Jackley. Jessica talks about her history with charity and learning about investing in people. She was a poetry major in college that went into finance and made a huge impact in the third world with microfinance, and is aiming to do something similar enabling finance of companies in the developed world. While the description of the new venture was a bit over my daughters head (and makes the video a bit long), I wanted her to watch this video for a few reasons. First, I wanted my daughter to see a young female entrepreneur - someone who has had success while young and who has made an impact on the world. If you watch the video, at about the16:30 point, she actually breaks down with emotion tied to her story. I wanted my daughter to see that some people really, really care about changing the world, and that showing some emotion is not necessarily a bad thing.
