Kiva Lending Team: A Family Gift Giving Alternative

A Families team since Nov 1, 2008

We loan because...
The money means more in the lives of others than a small increment does in ours.

About us
A preferred alternative to giving yet more STUFF for holidays: give instead to someone for whom a small amount of money will make a big difference.
