It’s my intention to have this thread go hand-in-hand with Steve’s wonderful new thread,  Our Youngest Lenders- Kiva’s Future
I’d like it to be a place where we can celebrate these young beautiful idealists in a kind of “hall of fame,” a gallery of Kiva’s Lender Youth.   

I know we already have a bunch of them highlighted in other threads.   But even though it may appear redundant to some, I’m hoping you all will help me in posting here the Lender photos/pages of as many of our school and youth group lenders as we can, just so they might be able to come to one central place to see themselves saluted along with so many others like them, eventually, I’m hoping, from all over the world. 

Here are a few to start:

Ms. Whiffen‘s Kids
http://www.kiva.org/lender/anmore
Hard to despair about the future of the world when you see all these beautiful little hearts.


MSC Learning By Loaning

http://www.kiva.org/lender/bert1323
This school has a confidentiality/privacy rule which prevented Teacher Bert from displaying a picture of his beautiful kids as he wrote me he would have liked to.  They recently added this lender pic to their profile page.  I’m relatively certain that it was drawn by one of the students at the Maurice Spears Campus.  Isn’t it just really really wonderful?!


TJ Middle School
http://www.kiva.org/lender/andrew9411
These kids have already collected enough money to make 105 loans!  How amazing is that?!


7b Sct. Nicolai skole
http://www.kiva.org/lender/7b4055
Some beautiful kids from Denmark


Mrs. Dibas’ Class
http://www.kiva.org/lender/mrsdibasclass1833
What sweethearts!



If, as I’m hoping, some of you would be willing to help me post here, the following are a few of the places, if you’re willing to go skimming, where we can find others to include.  If everybody would just try to post a few…
