KIVA Team Update

Our team is rocketing towards the 20k mark with tremendous force. Deb alerted us to this fact earlier today, and both she and I think we can make this goal sooner rather than later. I think we can do it by the beginning of summer.

Our team is now 49 people strong, and we've made 671 loans so far.

So, if we project that each loan went towards supporting the self-sufficiency of between 4-6 family members (a low number for most Third World households), we have collectively impacted the lives of between 2684 and 4026 persons.

Good job, Team KIVA.
