Okay, how many nanoseconds do you think it'll take us to re-loan all the new credits?   Grin

Kivafriends.org scrambled and respelled is "Risk And Forgive."  Of course, it also can be respelled "Asked For Virgin" and "Darer of Vikings" and even "Vinegar For Kids" but those are a lot less interesting.

Oh, excellent!!  I got one lonely credit this morning and had been wondering whether to loan it to one of the almost-expiring loans or look for one that I'm a little more excited about.  Now I've loaned it out and will wait for my funds tomorrow to search out "perfect loans".  Cheesy

REMEMBER TO DONATE TO KIVA.ORG when you relend your Credits!

When the partial repayments credit comes to pass, and we all have sudden positive Kiva Credit balances, PLEASE remember to earmark some of your Credit as a donation towards Kiva.org's operating expenses, if you are not already in the habit of doing so.  Kiva will no longer have the benefit of the "float" on our partially repaid funds, and our contributions will be welcome towards their solvency.

(And how fortunate that Eli is managing a donations matching grant challenge right now!  When you DO make those contributions to Kiva.org, remember to send the loan names/numbers and the amount of your contribution to Eli and she will include it in the total towards the $2500 matching grant!)

--Diane (wondering if I can take tomorrow off to relend.....)

Awesome. This will cause a firestorm! But... I think I might still wait for a loan to be fully repaid before making a new one, just so I can keep my records organized.... don't know yet if I'll be able to resist though!
