Kiva – Lending for a More Equitable World
On Sunday Craig mentioned the work of Kiva who are a US-based organisation who work with community organisations around the world to offer micro-finance to assist small business owners.
In many countries including Vietnam, Pakistan, Mali, Indonesia and Uganda – people are helped to buy everything from goats to manure to seeds to grocery store inventory. Lenders give small amounts from $25 as no interest loans.
It is a wonderful, simple way to assist people on low incomes. Find out more at kiva.org
