A woman who changed the paradigm of the donation, Jessica Jackley.

Jessica did an experiment of a lifetime to change the paradigm of donation.

I decided to give loans to the poor instead of donating.

Friends of mine were appalled and said "Are you going to make the poor repay the money?

However she fled to South Africa, and then lent money as she planned.

Soon after lending a few goats to the poor who wanted to buy them, I saw an amazing result.

The goat business developed, made continuous earnings, so family doesn't starve anymore.

'That's it!' Jessica decided to organize this action.

That is how KIVA, petty loan web site, was created.

Jessica posted on the site after  finding poor people who have an overflowing desire for new business.

" I would like to raise cones" " I need money to buy my livestock's food ".

Since the startup cost was small comparing to the developed country, the netizens from all over the world could borrow their money by saving their pocket money.

The accomplishment of KIVA was surprising. About 130,000 people participated from now, and about $ 700,000,000 is gathered.

The loan is occurring by help of 450 volunteers from 86 different countries.

The repayment rate of the loan reaches as much as 98.72%.

"You are trying to approach to the people who are begging in the streets. Image how this will be".

"This time Imagine how you meet the person doing the founding story hard."

" We always give them money only, never heard about their goal and will ".

by talking about their business, they

They can exist as a strong and vigorous member of society, not the weak.

"what I've realized from working this is that we are not in the vertical relationship with them "

"Changing the dichotomous thinking of the haves and the haves-nots, Being the same for our dignity with them"

We hope that KIVA will be able to accomplish." - Jessica Jackley.
