KIVA Workshop

As a startup or existing business, seeking traditional financing is not always an option.  With the help of technology, many forms of alternative financing have emerged; one being Kiva.  Kiva U.S. is an online crowdfunding program through which businesses can access 0% interest, fee-free loans up to $10,000.
 
Join MBAC and LISC, a Kiva partner, for a FREE workshop that will cover the essentials of Kiva and walk you through the Kiva application process.  Bring your laptop or smart phone if you'd like to submit your application during the workshop.  We'll have hard copies available as well so that you can jot down your ideas.
