\"leona\"<\/a>We’ve been endorsing small business loans as a\u00a0Kiva<\/a>\u00a0trustee since 2014. We were initially able to endorse loans up to $10,000, but we were recently given the opportunity to endorse loans up to $25,000! Join our\u00a0lending team<\/a>\u00a0to follow along with local loans that we endorse.<\/p>\n

We’re pleased to share that we are endorsing our first $25,000 loan for one of our local businesses,\u00a0Leona’s Ice Cream<\/a>. Leona’s moved to Wilkinsburg a few years ago, and though they don’t have a storefront, you can find their treats at local spots like Nancy’s East End Diner and the East End Food Co-op, among many other locations.<\/p>\n

A loan of $25,000 will help Leona’s recover from a recent total loss of inventory following a freezer failure. Additionally, funds will help support their growth this spring.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

We hope you’ll join us in supporting this great business by making a micro-loan of just $25 or more! Funds will be paid back to you over the course of the loan repayment, so there’s really nothing to lose.\u00a0Support local business and lend to Leona’s Ice Cream today!<\/em><\/p>\n
