What’s it all about?

ELEAVTE Society is an initiative to empower societies around the world by supporting entrepreneurs from developing countries in their entrepreneurship.

It has been created by normal everyday people who have chosen to contribute – small or big. It’s our mission and goal to support 1,000,0000 entrepreneurs and people in need in developing countries. [Check our progress] We believe elevating and empowering humanity is key. By helping the world, we not only help ourselves, but also contribute to something greater than ourselves — that’s what brings true fulfillment.

Why Kiva?

We’ve all heard the proverb “Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day. Teach a Man To Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime”. What often happens with charity is that it leads to dependency rather than empowerment. Lending through Kiva, on the other hand, takes the whole “Teach a Man To Fish” one level further because it does not assume we know better than the local entrepreneurs. There is no “teaching” involved, just simple empowerment.
