Chelsea Clinton Meets with Kiva U Students, Talks About Empowering Youth

October 7, 2015

Kiva U welcomed a very special guest to Kiva headquarters this week...author and activist Chelsea Clinton!


Chelsea met with students who are creating positive change through Kiva lending clubs and school projects and spoke about her passion for empowering youth. She was motivated to write her new book ‘It’s Your World: Get Informed, Get Inspired & Get Going!’ to give young people concrete ways they can take action.


“I wrote my book because I kept meeting kids who were aware of problems in their community and around the world and want to do something about them,” Clinton said. “They are already engaged in thinking about and trying to make difference.”
