Kiva.org

Kiva is an international nonprofit, founded in 2005 and based in San Francisco, with a mission to connect people through lending to alleviate poverty. We celebrate and support people looking to create a better future for themselves, their families and their communities.

STR Software is committed to honoring creativity, initiative, innovation and productivity. We have internalized this credo as part of our core values and now, through Kiva.org, have found a way to support those principles on a global scale.

Kiva is the world’s first personal, online lending platform connecting lenders to enterprising individuals throughout the world. The aim is to alleviate poverty while maintaining the dignity of the world’s working poor.

We are excited about the opportunity to share a little of what has made us successful to help entrepreneurs initiate, innovate and be productive members of their communities.
