3 days ago I started the lending team “Bloggers” on Kiva while it was in beta mode. Lending teams opened up to the public today and 2 other bloggers have joined!
If Kiva were a casino, Sam Snyder who joined this morning, would be considered a “whale”. He has 2,500+ loans as of date on Kiva and it’s great to see someone with so much passion for this cause. He has a blog called “The Big Winner“.
Roughly 5 minutes ago Andrea Dickson joined the team. Andrea writes for a real blog… you know… one with actual readers (unlike this one 
). She writes for Wisebread which is a blog I’m particularly fond of.
I’m pretty excited about the prospect of more and more bloggers (and their readers) who are involved in Kiva joining the team. I’ll be gone for Labor Day weekend so perhaps a few more characters will find their way onto the team.
The more the merrier, find the “Bloggers” lending team and join!
Nice job taking the initiative and organizing this — it’s nice to see bloggers band together on great causes such as this
Wow, nice group.
Thats more than most people make in one whole year. Awesome.
OMG, Sam Snyder has given 2722 loans as I write this comment
