KIVA Update, February 2012

With a recent turnover of funds for Kiva by making four more $25 loans to enrepreneurs around the world, we have impacted the lives of 42 families.
Go to http://www.kiva.org/ to see how this worthy cause affects the lives of thousands around the world. You can join in for only $25. The payback rate for all loans made through Kiva is over 97%, meaning that fewer than 3% of the loans are defaulted on.
All the loans that have been made by our money has been paid back, enabling us to loan that money out to someone else.
