Countries where Kiva works
Kiva is a platform for crowdfunding loans to small-scale entrepreneurs around the world.
Kiva is a place where people join together for good. An international nonprofit founded in 2005 and based in San Francisco, Kiva's mission is to connect people through lending to alleviate poverty. We celebrate and support people from all walks of life looking to create a better future for themselves, their families and their communities. On the world's largest crowdfunding platform for social good, you can fund a loan in $25 increments to back the dreams of refugees, small business owners, students, and those needing a chance - at home in the U.S. and abroad.
