A Friends team since May 25, 2009

We loan because...
"We ought to do good to others as simply as a horse runs, or a bee makes honey, or a vine bears grapes season after season without thinking of the grapes it has borne." -Marcus Aurelius

About us
We support honeybees, their keepers, and all who toil season after season to do good for the human hive. Our team photo is of Carmen, a Peruvian beekeeper and Kiva loan recipient.

Location: All over the world
