The $800 Renovation

Thanks for being in the room.

The talk, in sixty seconds

In Portoviejo, Ecuador, a landlord named Nancy is looking to borrow $800 through Kiva for paint and bathroom fixtures, so her vacant apartment could become someone’s home again. In Melbourne, we did the same converting a property into 9 rooms where people call home. Essentially allocating capital towards a project that provides a safe, clean, space where people can call home. Everyone has a story, this is a similar story, at two different ends of the world.

Help fund the next Nancy

Kiva micro-loans start at US$25 and go to small landlords, shopkeepers and families getting moving again. If today resonated, this is the fastest way to act on it. Every project we complete, we put something back in too.
