I don't see any $25 free kiva credit anywhere after I register through your kiva group. Where can I get one?
Comment has been collapsed.
hmmm, have you already registered before clicking the link?
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes, I did. I have registered through your link given (http://www.kiva.org/invitedto/mvukeunity/by/stephen3443), but still didn't get any free credits.

Like I told the guy below, that's really weird. I don't know what went wrong. Maybe you missing a step or doing a step out of order are the only two things I can come up with that would cause this problem. If you can give me more information, I can contact Kiva.org about it, and we can figure it out.

That's really weird. I don't know whats wrong with that. Maybe you missed a step, or did a step out of order? Have you done anything on Kiva.org before you tried to sign-up for Kiva through the invite link? If you can give me more information, I can contact Kiva.org about this, and we can sort it out.

sorry buddy, the only way in is through this link: http://www.kiva.org/invitedto/mvukeunity/by/stephen3443. Then once you join kiva through this link, post back on here and on the kiva team message board. Then you can get an invite

I have heard about Kiva and their micro-loan system in the past but didn't know they operated on the web (although everyone does now, so it makes sense). Joining up now =).
Helped a lady get a proper laptop, feels good! BTW, I couldn't find this info anywhere, may have missed it, but what does Mvuke mean? I've been to a Japanese dessert bar in Tokyo that went by that name after a friend in Hong Kong recommended it. I asked the person who served me what it meant and she didn't know either, lol. All I know is that they use Belgian chocolate (mmm) and various types of Madagascan beans. Does it have anything to do with those locations?

Cheers buddy, invite sent.
Kind of a long story with the name Mvuke. So Kiva was started by some college students a while back, and after visiting Africa in preparation for launching the site, they to name the site Kiva. They originally thought it was Swahili for the word Unity, but they were mistaken. Kiva is not Swahili for Unity. But they decided to keep the name anyways. Mvuke on the other hand is the Swahili translation of the word 'steam'. Since this group tries to unite Kiva.org with Steampowered.com, it made sense to me to use the Swahili word for Steam. And it sounds a lot better than SteamKiva too.
Hope you enjoy the group and its giveaways

nice, I see that you were able to get it. awesome. invite sent
Comment has been collapsed.
hmmm, that's really weird. Before, everyone who joined would get a $25 bonus. Maybe that's no longer happening? I'll look into it. Awesome for loaning out of your pocket though. You're pretty fucking badass

Hello everyone, I created a group called MvukeUnity on Steam that is committed to giving away a whole lot of games to people if they sign up on Kiva.org and join the MvukeUnity Kiva team.
By signing up, you are given a free bonus of $25 to lend to people in third world countries that need help. This is risk free, as all you need to do is sign up through the MvukeUnity team recruitment link. Anonymous and pseudonyms are also allowed. And you do not need to spend any money, as this bonus is for any new member that joins through the link.
By doing this, you are then allowed entery into the MvukeUnity Steam group that posts giveaways all the time. Like a lot of games are given away in this group, and not just by me.
Once you join Kiva through the link above, message me your Steam profile and you Kiva portfolio on the MvukeUnity Kiva team page, and I will then invite you into the group.
I have a large stockpile of games to giveaway on my Steam profile inventory, as well as many more keys to games (such as borderlands GOTY, bioshock 1&2, spec ops: the line, the darkness 2, and more) on my amazon game inventory. I also have a very large stockpile of bundle game keys too. All of these games are designated for the MvukeUnity Steam group. Giveaways posted already in the past week:
Portal 2, Mad Riders, Mount & Blade Collection, Virtual Tennis 4, Spec Ops: The Line, Crusader Kings II, Mirror's Edge, Alien Hallway, Just Cause.
Membership to the MvukeUnity Steam group is already up to 80 or so people. And thanks to these initial members, the MvukeUnity Kiva team has facilitated over $4000 in new loans to people who need it. An amazing amount considering that the team went "live" only days ago.

UPDATE: All new users to Kiva.org who sign up through the Kiva.org team page link above will get a free $25 to lend on the site as a bonus. This is all that is necessary to be admitted into the group, just make sure it is through the MvukeUnity Kiva.org team so that it can be tracked and verified.
NEWER UPDATE: In order to streamline the process and help with verifying whether people loaned or not, please post your Steam profile and Kiva portfolio on the MvukeUnity Kiva team page. The link to the team page is below. Thank you. It makes it even easier if you post here too. But that is superfluous.
This was all created on paper, and so there is bound to be some hiccups, so that's why I am posting on the forums. To gauge interest and also to hear from everyone. Something sound wrong or is all good?
More info here: Blogger Info Blog . And here: Kiva Team HQ . And here: Steam Group .
If you have anymore questions, just let me know. I hope this whole idea works.
Cheers,
Bardsley
