In Sri Lanka and Pakistan it is difficult to get money out of the country and in India it seems impossible. Therefore, there is not a single project listed on Kiva from India.Skumarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18032809.post-25779122465751322602012-02-27T05:31:13.461-08:002012-02-27T05:31:13.461-08:00We Care India is another platform ( similar to Kia...We Care India is another platform ( similar to Kiav and Rangde) that recently launched and operates at grassroots bypassing a field partners.

I joined it recently, and made my first microcredit loan too - to a Tanzanian family to build a house. RangDe seems about the same, with a smaller investor community.<br /><br />I wonder whether it makes sense for the lending partners on RangDe to tie-up with Kiva. There's a massive community of NRIs on Kiva who're raising a lot of money - among the largest donor groups there - and yet there are no projects listed in India on Kiva.Ankur Banerjeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04505258106724446269noreply@blogger.com
