Happy to work with Kiva
I ve been working with Kiva for many years and have only seen it improve 95 of the dollars I ve shared are repaid so I can relend to others It s a phenomenal program Spend some time learning about Kiva you should want to be a part of it

I like it that in KIVA you can donate small sums
I like it that in KIVA you can donate with low cost funding - a GREAT way to pool funding from many people for ONE request IF the requests were for higher donations I for one would not be able to share with the requests for backing loans It also makes the lending much more personal with the feeling that you really are helping those who need a boost for boot strapping their businesses and other needs

Capitalism the best way out of poverty
Kiva provides an opportunity to give a fellow Human Being a hand up not a hand out Reading the stories of the individuals who have received loans proves this Join me and make a small loan to someone doing their best to improve their lives and the lives of those around them

GREAT Way to Help Many People to Help Themselves
KIVA is a GREAT way to help people help themselves their family and community Instead of just giving people a handout a 25 loan enables people helping themselves using their skills and businesses to better their lives AND as they repay their loan those funds can be loaned again and again to help more and more people KIVA also provides a lot of information about the loans and lending partners which is helpful to choose a loan With so many options of loan types you can always find a borrower you connect with to lend to and root for to succeed As a KIVA lender since 2008 it s a WONDERFUL way to support and positively impact many people around the world with an endless cycle of giving

Great concept based on financial
Great concept based on financial empowerment instead of charity By lending and relending the impact of given financial resources can be maximized Transparency is good which is especially important in a delicate and complex field like Microfinance

Easy meaningful donations
It is very easy to see where your money is going and explanations of why it matters There are numerous categories of loan types and locations to sort and search by I have found loans from my hometown and all across the world The website is easy to use and navigate I use this website at least once a month and being able to re-loan money that is paid back makes it more and more rewarding to use over time

Kiva is a gem
Kiva is a gem A place that one can rest assured your lending will reach those who need it most I have been a member for 4 years now and lended almost 10 000 But the impact of my lending is multiplied many times over as I re-lend the money as I am repaid This truly is an amazing organization worthy of your thoughtful consideration

Microlend and Relend with the same funds many times over
Kiva allows me to choose who I am lending to describes the needs of that person or group and provides many options for the type of borrower I want to lend to Lending and relending the same funds over and over and over as those funds are repaid allows me to continue making a difference without a huge financial commitment on my part Give Kiva a try
