Kiva Assignment

You will need to do three things:

1.) Learn about Kiva;

2.) Select a loan that you think should be funded and write a paper about why this loan deserves funding more than the others listed;

3.) Develop a 3-5 minute presentation to inform the class about your selection.

Watch the Jessica Jackley Ted talk about the founding of Kiva.

Individuallyreview loan requests on Kiva.org. Select one loan request that you think should be funded along with a rationale for your loan selection. Include a link to the loan request so I can review the information as well. From the submissions, I will select the one loan request to fund for $25.

Paper needs to be at least four fully developed paragraphs in length and must include: how much is being borrowed, the repayment schedule, background about the loan applicant, what the funds are going to be used for, and why this loan should be funded above all the other loan requests available.
