Overview

We all bring a rich plethora of attributes to our Monarch Business School community and the programs we engage in. We are all different and unique. Many of us will never meet in person but we know we are part of something bigger. And isn’t it wonderful to be part of something that feels good. We can see all aspects of our lives that we are involved in as radiating out branches of energy and interacting with others as each is nourished and stimulated into something more. For Monarch, this sentiment is an important part of how we see the world and how we see the role of business within society.

Kiva.org – Loans That Make A Difference

Monarch has been using the Kiva.org platform to assist in making micro loans available to entrepreneurs from around the world.

Kiva helps individuals and groups to provide micro-loans in developing countries with the intention of empowering individual entrepreneurs. Loan amounts that we direct to a recipient is fully passed on to them without any deduction from our intended loan amount. Kiva is funded solely by voluntary donations as separate contributions. Kiva loans have an impressive repayment rate of approximately 97%.

Success Stories

Kiva Life is a function we can see through our account that gives us updates on our previous borrowers. Kiva sends people into the field to journal progress and report back to lenders. One of our lenders, Imran, has a school in Pakistan. With our help and that of many others, he was able to purchase a water cooler, a generator and a new toilet. He expressed sincere thanks to us all.

Highlights and Statistics
