I loan because:
Micro financing is arguably the most effective and most direct way of increasing someones chances in life. Giving people the opportunity to start and run their own business directly benefits everyone around them.
About me:
I was given opportunities that were only available to me because I was able to loan money. I feel other people deserve the same opportunities. I consider Kiva to be my -1% interest rate savings account.
