Kiva Lenders surpass $100,000,000!

November 1, 2009

Around 2pm today (Happy Halloween for those in the U.S.), Kiva hit a major milestone:

$100,000,000
in loans raised


It's a wonderful accomplishment involving 584,189 Kiva Lenders in our first 4 years of operations. What's even more amazing to me is that it took over 1 year to raise our first $1 million . This year alone, we're on track to raise nearly $60 million. On behalf of the volunteers, staff, microfinance field partners and the entrepreneurs they serve -- thank you and congrats to Kiva Lenders for reaching this incredible milestone!
