Kiva Business Card
May 21, 2008 – 7:03 am
Kiva.org, the nonprofit peer to peer microlending organization, has partnered with Advanta to create the Kiva Business Card. The idea is pretty straightforward. You go to Kiva.org and choose a business owner you want to loan to. Then use your Kiva Business Card to make the loan, and Advanta matches your loan dollar for dollar (up to $200 per month). It doesn’t cost you anything more than what you decided to donate (as long as you pay off your card at the end of the month) and the business owner you selected to support gets double the money. This partnership is a great example of companies working together to create innovative solutions for important issues and we hope to see many others follow their lead.
To see a great video about how the program works and find out how you can participate visit the Kiva B4B website here.
