Delegates affirm their institution's commitment to the Microcredit Summit by signing the Declaration of Support

The purpose of the Microcredit Summit was to launch a global campaign to ensure that 100 million of the world's poorest families, especially the women of those families, are receiving credit for self-employment and other financial and business services by the year 2005.

RESULTS Educational Fund, through the Microcredit Summit Secretariat, is committed to doing its part to ensure that the enthusiasm and energy generated around this goal is translated into meaningful action to fulfill it.

The Microcredit Summit Fulfillment Campaign has two central components:

• The Microcredit Summit Councils
• The Institutional Action Plan

.

The Microcredit Summit Campaign is sponsored by the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, Citicorp Foundation, Monsanto Fund, the Summit Foundation, and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation.
