I gave my first $25 loan yesterday! Wow- I think this is an amazing organization! I can feel kind of a draw to drum up more money to give out more loans! Uh, Kiva addiction?! Haha! What a great community! I can't wait to learn what other ways I can help.

I made my first 3 loans on Tuesday, Sept. 4th, after watching Oprah's show. I made another on behalf of my wife the following day & 2 more to-day.

It felt good. Thumbs Up Dance

And on the day when your first loan repays fully... and the couple-few days later when you see that first Kiva Credit....

WOW !   Smiley

By the time I get my first credit I hope to have increased my lending total considerably.

Welcome Jundee!  I guess there is no need to warn you about acquiring a Kiva addiction as it already sounds as though you are 'hooked.'  Shocked Welcome to the world of Kivans.  Smiley
