Microfinance scheme experiences (like Kiva)

Ms. SA, 24 December, 2008 at 10:00 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 1

Has anyone had any experience of kiva.org ? It was recommended to me from a mailing list I read (I know there are a few Hitchers out there who'll recognise which one since I know a few of you are readers too).

I was thinking of doing it. Unless there is a more UK-based alternative organisation that is reputable for donating to microfinance schemes?

    We've used Kiva, although it was mostly H who did it so I don't know much about it. Have a few friends who have used it too. Sounds like a great idea - you can go online and choose who to lend the money to and get updates from them on how their business is going, I think.

    OK thanks for the input Mariko, will discuss with H at some point to get involved.

    Cheers ?
