The
elimination of poverty in the world promotes peace, cooperation
and understanding. We are not powerless to change the world.
We are all one. At Team Bearcat we believe we can make a difference
one person at a time . . . one small loan at a time.
What
is Kiva?
Kiva is
the world's first person-to-person micro-lending website, empowering
individuals to lend directly to unique entrepreneurs around the
globe. Kiva's mission is to connect people through
lending for the sake of alleviating poverty. Kiva
is a U.S. 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Click
here to learn about the Kiva Story. A brilliant idea
by two young entrepreneurs is now changing the world.
The people you see on Kiva's site are real individuals in
need of funding - not marketing material. When you browse
entrepreneurs' profiles on the site, choose someone to lend to, and
then make a loan, you are helping a real person make great strides
towards economic independence and helping them to improve life for
themselves, their family, and their community. Throughout the course
of the loan (usually 6-12 months), you can receive email journal
updates and track repayments. Then, when you get your loan money
back, you can re-lend to someone else in need. Read
much more about Kiva at this link.
Kiva
is like Ebay for the elimination of poverty around the planet. Read,
see and learn about hard working entrepreneurs who
need small loans to lift themselves and their families out of poverty. YOU
CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. All
you need is $25 to make a micro-loan to make a difference in the world. Won't
you give up that bottle of wine or that dinner out to join us in changing
the world?
You
choose who to lend to - whether a baker in Afghanistan, a goat herder in Uganda, a
farmer in Peru, a restaurateur in Cambodia, or a tailor in Iraq
- and as they repay their loan, you get your money back. It's
a powerful and sustainable way to empower someone right now to
lift themselves out of poverty.
