I am emailing now to ask for your help. We have applied for a business loan through Kiva to help grow our business. I have 20 days to crowd source the $10,000 loan. Funding on Kiva is an all or nothing deal. So I would really appreciate your help!
If you haven't heard of it, Kiva is the first and largest micro-lending service in the world that has distributed $709 million over 10 years, in 85 different countries, among 1.5 million small businesses.
People from all over the world can contribute to my loan by pledging as little as $25. Whoever contributes gets paid back! :) I hope you will consider pledging. Every bit counts.
I'd love to have a larger variety of plants in stock and get a watering and lighting set-up in the shop. Part of my loan will go to that. I will also use part of loan to help pay for my store front space, stock it with awesome plants and other merchandise for y'all (Farm & Forest t-shirts and totes!) and get some signs up so I can draw more people into my little oasis.
Have a stake in your local plant shop and follow this link to pledge if you're able. I would be so super grateful!
Thank you so much and let me know if you have any questions!
