Kiva loan $1 billion!

Yesterday, Kiva crossed $1 billion in loans to students, farmers, women, refugees and so many more entrepreneurs around the world.

This milestone wouldn’t have been possible without our passionate community of lenders, volunteers, partners, staff and supporters like you. Your dedication to creating a better world and your willingness to share Kiva’s mission powered this movement from day 1 to make this moment a reality.

Here's how you helped make $1 billion in change!

We’re looking forward to the next billion in loans, and we’re so thankful to have you by our side on this journey.

Best wishes,
The Kiva team
