Advanta and Kiva launch KivaB4B Project to empower small business help entrepreneurs in developing countries
Advanta Corp. and Kiva have launched the KivaB4B Project, a joint initiative that encourages small business owners and entrepreneurs in the U.S. to support entrepreneurs in developing countries. Through the initiative, Advanta customers can make grants – using an Advanta business credit card – to Kiva for entrepreneurs of their choice, and Advanta will match each grant, dollar for dollar, up to $200 per month per account. That’s double the capital, double the impact.
Advanta is one of the nation’s largest credit card issuers (through Advanta Bank Corp.) in the small business market, and Kiva is a non-profit organization that created the first peer-to-peer microfinance platform.
