Tomorrow is International Women’s Day and Kiva has been aiming to lend to 10,000 women around the world. Women help to leverage their families’ security and progress by maintaining their own business, supporting their husbands in theirs, and helping to fun their children’s education.
Our Kiva Genealogists for Families group has a tradition of lending to women, perhaps because the genealogy world has a majority of women researchers. Thanks to these loans, families have gained greater economic security and better health through eco-energy and toilets…things we often take for granted. As our loans are repaid, we can choose to re-lend to others and keep growing our impact.
If you’re part of our team why not boost your loans today. If you haven’t joined yet, you can read more about how the team works here. And if you’re at Congress 2018 in Sydney, feel free to speak to me about it if you want to know more. I’ll have some flyers to share.
Very easy to do. Re-cycling loan repayments has enabled loans totalling over $3,000 from a cash input of just over a third of that.
