Remember donating your spare change to KIVA way back in 2019? We were able to help finance small loans in the Dominican Republic. Now, as those loans are being repaid, we are able to reloan the money.
In honor of Black History Month, loans made today to minority-owned businesses were matched dollar for dollar. We made a $25 ($50 total) loan to Kari in Arkansas, and $25 ($50 total) loan to Ebony in Federal Way, WA.
From your original investment of $747, Westsiders have made 20 loans for a total of $1225. You have made a real difference to those who face discrimination or other obstacles to obtaining credit. Thank you.
