Free-trial loans on Kiva!


Followers of BTSF can get a free Kiva trial!

Here's a review BTSF did on Kiva founder, Jessica Jackley's talk on TED.

In brief, Kiva helps facilitate small loans to empower folks in need (that you can select) that are trying to run their own businesses to improve their lives. I like it because I can recycle the same money: one $25 gift can be used over and over again for different people as it gets repaid (so what was $25, has the actual effect of hundreds)! Then if you are ever tired of it, you can withdraw the money again and you have made a huge impact on people's lives at zero cost to you!

A lot of times it is hard to put the money up to start such things, but amazingly Kiva is giving out free $25 trials, just to check it out. This is HUGE!

I encourage you to investigate! http://www.kiva.org/invitedby/lucy2980
