As a rational and results oriented New Yorker, I agree with all previously stated opinions on cash made by my brilliant colleagues: cash is good, cash gives our clients choice and cash gives our clients voice. So, as an organization, we have committed to scaling cash transfer programs from a variety of angles. But there is a catch (there is always a catch) and that is sustainability.
