Kiva loan :)

[cosmosgrove]

Aww my 14 year old son just happily paid for a Kiva loan out of his own money. I suggested it to him after showing him the one I did last night and he didn't hesitate to say yes.

Just a little bit proud that he did that :-x

Kiva repayments should be coming in within the next couple of days, I think it will be a stretch to reach our target of 500 by our 3rd birthday on the 23rd October, but you never know! I will have two more to do once the repayments come in.

I have repayments in my account and will look tonight to relend if I get time.

Ten year anniversary for kiva. Impressive figures.

Joono just posted a message in kiva reminding us we are nearly at 500 loans.

I think it fitting if cosmos you do the 500th seeing as you started the CS kiva team. (If you are able)

I have just made 2 more loans, well done everyone.

C'mon cosmos, you have the honour of making the 500th loan seeing as you started this thread and the CS team. 

I have repayments to make a few more now.

I don't want to tread on anyone's toes or take funds from kiva, but I know of a worthwhile project, involving children and play, that some people may be interested in.  PM me if you would like more info.  

I made another couple of kiva loans recently. It is such a great scheme.  I love being involved in helping.

Haha, sorry I haven't popped in here for quite some time and I've been away. I've just noticed we are still sitting on 499 loans and have enough to reloan, I'll do it now 🙂

[cosmosgrove]

All done, I had enough for a couple of loans, it's now 501 🙂

Great, we've been waiting for you to do the honours. 

I bet you didn't think 500 loans would be achieved in such a short time when you first posted after your son did a loan.
