Greeting Kiva Friends (Updated!): I have just joined the Kiva Friends network and will be updating you all periodically on my up and coming adventure! In short, I am embarking on a walk across America to BOOST Kiva awareness/membership across our great country starting on March 1st of 2010 (from Lewes, Delaware to San Francisco, CA). I will be leaving from Lewes, Delaware and ending in San Francisco, CA March 1st of 2010. Much of my route will take place on the American Discovery Trail - for more route information visit: http://www.kivawalk.com/?page_id=92 Kiva Walk 2010 is not affiliated directly with Kiva.org; however, I recently visited Kiva staff in San Francisco to establish relationship and credibility all while soaking up their excitement and support! Please join me along the way and/or let me know if/when I will be coming through your area. I would love any feedback, advice, and guidance on how I can maximize this trip!

"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again…who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions and spends himself in a worthy course; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly; so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."

Interesting concept Jonathon. I wish you well. I've e-mailed folks I know in Denver and sent them your Support Page link. Neat idea!

Advice--buy several Kiva t-shirts and a sweatshirt so you are a walking billboard!
Put up itinerary on KF site so we can join you. Offer to do speeches where you go.

Colette: Great! Kiva is working on sending me some shirts - and I am planning to have a large piece of cardboard with "Kiva Walk" attached to my backpack at ALL times! As for presentations - absolutely! - I will practice here in Denver at a few classrooms/businesses and go from there. My trip is wide open at this stage, so I hope to have opportunities to share in every town/city I come across. Thank you for your advice and please pass along my www.visualcv.com/kivawalk to anyone who might want to join/support the walk! Cheers, Jonathon Stalls |
