Given that entrepreneurship is a big component to what we’re doing at Twiistup, Kiva is an obvious fit. So here’s the deal, we put 2 tickets aside to give away. Between now and the day before Twiistup 3 (Jan 15) , anyone that donates at least $10 to Kiva.org (via our donation page contest is over but feel free to donate) will be eligible to win 2 VIP tickets to Twiistup 3. The contest is now officially open and will run until 5p on Jan 15, 2008. The winner will be randomly selected and announced at 5:30p on Jan 15, 2008 on Twiistup.com.
We’re partnering up with Kiva.org because we’re big-big fans of what they’re doing. In case you’re not aware, Kiva.org works like this..
Kiva lets you connect with and loan money to unique small businesses in the developing world. By choosing a business on Kiva.org, you can “sponsor a business†and help the world’s working poor make great strides towards economic independence. Throughout the course of the loan (usually 6-12 months), you can receive email journal updates from the business you’ve sponsored. As loans are repaid, you get your loan money back.
