Kiva: Rather than ask each member to loan out hundreds or thousands of dollars, the microlending group pools small loans, as little as $25. Kiran's app helps potential lenders sift through the many projects.
Much like KivaDroid for Android and Kiva7 for Windows phones, iKiva was not designed by the actual organization. Kiva has opened up its database so that independent programmers can create new tools and spread the word. Kiran plans to release an iPad version this winter.
