In July of 2008, NikeTalk allocated over $6,800 to create a lending fund on Kiva.org, a website that allows individuals to finance microloans to entrepreneurs in need around the world.
Since then, we've issued nine loans for a total of over $13,000 - cycling the entire fund in the process.
Each time, we've allowed you to vote to determine which of Kiva's entrepreneurs would receive support from our community lending account.
We've also created our own Kiva lending team, which has issued over 50 loans of its own.
If you're new to Kiva, you now have the opportunity to sign up and enjoy a free $25 trial by following this invitation link:

We'll begin issuing new loans soon, and, just as before, you'll have the chance to select the recipients. In the meantime, I hope you'll consider taking advantage of the $25 free trial opportunity and join our NikeTalk lending team.
Only 6,600 trials remain at the moment, so, if you're interested, there's no time to waste. Kiva really is a great way to DIRECTLY help people around the world lift themselves and their families out of poverty, and, since most loans are fully repaid, it's something you can do again and again. It's difficult indeed to find better value for your money - and that's never been more true now that Kiva's offering a $25 trial.
