I lend a lot on Kiva, in part because it's more fun, and in part because I dumped a lot of money in there prior to getting into EA, but the evidence of effectiveness for microfinance seems much more limited/tenuous than Give Directly, Deworm the World, or AMF. For what it's worth, though, One Acre Fund (one of the Kiva field partners) is a recommended charity on The Life You Can Save (another EA charity evaluator)[0]. Since discovering that, I've been focusing my loans towards that specific partner. They currently have a lot of loans which are nearing expiration, if you're interested: https://www.kiva.org/lend?partner=202&sortBy=expiringSoon https://www.kiva.org/lend?partner=202&sortBy=expiringSoon [0] https://www.thelifeyoucansave.org/Where-to-Donate/One-Acre-Fund https://www.thelifeyoucansave.org/Where-to-Donate/One-Acre-F...
