SUPPORT
G.F.A.P. Legacy acknowledges independence, growth and prosperity by providing individuals, entrepreneurs, communities and organizations with a broad base of support to help them achieve success.
Social LendingAlso known as Peer-to-peer, person-to-person or P2P, Social Lending is the practice of lending money to previously unrelated individuals or "peers" without the intermediation of traditional financial institutions (banks). It takes place on online lending platforms that are provided by peer-to-peer lending companies on their websites and is facilitated by credit checking tools of varying complexity. |
Donating & VolunteeringMost organizations could not exist without the generosity of others. Whether you are donating your time, money, or both, rest assured that you are making a difference. Making a difference is what motivates and drives our efforts. |

MICRO PLACEImagine a world in which you couldn’t get cash from an ATM, use a credit card to buy a sandwich or to get insurance to cover medical emergencies. Daily life would become much more difficult without the financial tools most of us take for granted.
Unfortunately, 40% of the world lives in poverty with no access to such resources for managing their financial lives. * You can help change that. Use your portfolio to finance a project that enables the working poor to move from subsistence-level living to managing their money– all it takes is access to basic financial resources. You get to invest in something you believe in while making your money back with interest! *source: Portfolios of the Poor Jonathan Morduch, Daryl Collins, Stuart Rutherford, Orlanda Ruthven |

KIVAKiva is a non-profit organization with a mission to connect people through lending to alleviate poverty. Leveraging the internet and a worldwide network of microfinance institutions, Kiva lets individuals lend as little as $25 to help create opportunity around the world.
Kiva lenders combat poverty daily by making small loans to borrowers around the world. We believe in fair access to affordable capital for people to improve their own lives. Often only a relatively small amount of money stands in the way of Kiva borrowers and their dreams. Whether it’s a Kenyan farmer who needs $500 in order to double her grain production, or a young Bolivian woman who lacks the $1,500 tuition for nursing school, Kiva lenders provide a hand up to these and countless other borrowers. |
