Kiva.org and the Power of a Story Case Solution
Throughout Kiva's starting and history, Jackley, the spirit behind the company, and Flannery, the CEO, remained real to their initial objective of linking individuals and offering business owners with self-respect and regard. A desire to inform the genuine stories of these business owners influenced Kiva's starting, and this spirit of fiction pervaded the whole company, whether or not via the creator's story, loan provider stories, business owner stories, or fellow stories.
In 2005, Jessica Jackley and cofounder Matt Flannery had actually begun San Francisco-based Kiva due to the fact that throughout a three-month work task in East Africa, Jackley had actually satisfied Ugandan business owners and wished to share their inspiring stories with loved ones. Quickly afterwards, Flannery and Jackley introduced Kiva, the world's very first person-to-person micro-lending site, with an objective to "link individuals through financing for hardship relief."
