We loan because...
This team is for one purpose only: to bring back 'Recent news items' on the Portfolio page. We need to know when there are new messages on our team forums. Deleting 'Recent news items' was a hard blow to Kiva teams and our Kiva experience.

Please join the team as a petition to bring back 'Recent news items'.
Thank you!

Recent news items: The “Recent news items” on the Portfolio page (not to be confused with “Recent Updates for My Loans”) was originally meant to provide a snapshot of recent lender messages and lending team messages. In our research we’ve observed that very few people use this feature, instead preferring to check messages directly on team boards or in their email notifications. Given that this page is the first thing every lender sees when they sign into Kiva, we feel it’s especially important to streamline this page and remove sections that don’t add a lot of value.
