KIVA

In class today Mr. Schick should us a website called Kiva. It is a website where you can go to loan money to people who need it. There are thousands of people all around the world asking for loans so they can start business or other for other things. Almost 98% of the loans are paid back! That's amazing. The best part is that once they pay back your loan you can loan it to someone else. You can pick the people you want to loan to and read about their story. One person wanted money in order to buy some sheep. This is a way to help the less fortunate without spending all your money. Mr. Schick wanted to know if we wanted to loan some money. You only have to loan 20 dollars to help. I think this site is very cool, and we should all try to help out.
