Kiva Lender Saloni

location:
United States
occupation:
Kiva U Advisory Board Member
I loan because:
I contribute to Kiva to help women attain financial stability in developing countries. I mitigate the risk of loans defaulting by using self-defined investment criteria including: shorter repayment terms, field partners with 4-5 star ratings, socioeconomic landscape of countries, sector of business, and smaller loan amounts. To date, I have helped 736 women thus far in 34 countries. Since high school, I have been passionate about microfinance as it creates a virtuous cycle of giving and receiving. Updated 8/31/2020.
