As a mother of four, I am so incredibly grateful for the opportunity to run a business that enhances my life and the lives of my children in so many ways! The Essence of Eve staff and family couldn't think of a better way to express our gratitude than by "paying it forward" to other women and mothers working for a better life and future for their families. We have chosen Kiva.org as our avenue of giving. Kiva will allow us, with help from you, to fund small business loans for women entrepreneurs in developing countries. As these loans are repaid (as they almost always are) we can then redirect those funds to new developing businesses.

Soon we will be offering special products and sets to fund our Kiva projects. The sale price will be directed to the women we're sponsoring. We also would like to invite you to donate directly. Together we can make a huge impact on the lives of mothers and children across the world!

To learn more about Kiva and how your small donation can help elevate women and mothers around the world, please visit Kiva.org.

If you are interested in seeing your donations at work, you can view our progress on The Essence of Eve lender's page.
