Thank you from a Kiva Borrower

In July 2012 I told you about Kiva (www.kiva.org), which is a non-profit that allows you to lend as little as $25 to a specific low-income entrepreneur anywhere in the world! (See Wiser on Wednesday post July 11, 2012)

I contributed $25 and have already received several repayments. Kiva a powerful and sustainable way to empower someone right now to lift themselves out of poverty.   Please consider Kiva. Check it out! and then pass it on!

This is Luisa She used her Kiva Loan to buy materials for her sewing business, boosting her income and helping her better support her family. She'd like to thank you herself.

Wiser on Wednesday - KIVA

 Good Morning!

  I wanted to let you know about Kiva (www.kiva.org), which is a non-profit that allows you to lend as little as $25 to a specific low-income entrepreneur anywhere in the world! (the internet is soooo amazing!)

  The Kiva system allows you to choose who to lend to - whether a baker in Afghanistan, a goat herder in Uganda, a farmer in Peru, a restaurateur in Cambodia, or a tailor in Iraq - and as they repay their loan, you get your money back. It's a powerful and sustainable way to empower someone right now to lift themselves out of poverty.   Check it out! and then pass it on!

Please post a comment (now or later) if and/or when you participate. I'm excited about this and would like to know. -thanks! Here's my choice - http://www.kiva.org/invitedby/ryuwji9919/for/436338
