International Women’s Day 2013 (three items)

I received three emails concerning IWD which I have reduced and edited here:


KIVA - every day we at Kiva hear stuff like this:

• 70% of the world's poorest people are women.
• Two-thirds of illiterate adults are women.
• HIV is still the leading cause of illness for women in many places.

Kiva loans help thousands of powerful, inspiring women start businesses, educate their children, and realize their dreams.
You can tip the balance!

Want to make a difference? Send a Free Trial to your friends and family so they can empower a woman on Kiva too. Just send them to kiva.org/women
