KIVA Crew: We did it!

[sabrinamari]

We did it! I'm jumping up and down with joy! Thank you, Cynthia, for making the loans that pushed us over the edge. And Laura, your loans---which I think were made nearly at the same time---were also key. They not only got us over that line, but literally blew it away---great job! We are currently at $10,250.00.

And thank you, Peggy, Cat, Bill, Glen, Kristin, Eliz, and all of you who pushed us right up to the $10,000 mark so we could leap over as a group.

I am exceptionally proud and happy.

Another thought: This contests a whole slew of stereotypes about Pagans and money. As a community, we can be both generous and financially responsible---we can take good care of our own families and contribute to the wellbeing of our local/greater communities.

This is a beautiful day.

Yay! When I saw Cynthia's message I went to the site, and it still said we were $50 short, so I made a $25 loan to help, but after I did, it said we were at $10,225, so I guess it just took a few minutes for Cynthia's loans to show up!

You two each did a spectacular job; you both made multiple loans just when we needed them most. I am giving you both long, happy hugs and I'll be singing your praises---and the praises of all my KIVA peeps---for at least a week.

Your comments that we were close inspired me so I logged on yesterday to re-loan the funds that were just sitting there and to add a new loan. YEAH!! for our whole group.

I saw that---thank you, honey. That was a beautiful choice.

Yay!

That made me so happy that I went and made another loan!
