Metro State Alum Jonathan Stalls, Walks Across America for Kiva



Hey Folks-

Metro State Alumni Jonathan Stalls, has been walking across America to awaken the idea of community in America. Yesterday, was Day 164 for him. Jonathan has walked a proud 2000 miles for Kiva, an organization that helps to encourage new entrepreneurs and help them with their business by micro-lending. Any individual can help another for their business ideas, and may do so by donating money to a person to help them to become confident entrepreneurs. Jonathan Stalls is not accepting donations but walks to promote awareness at a national community level and to help this non-profit help other individuals with micro-lending. Every time he has access to a computer, he constantly posts and updates on social networks like facebook, kivawalk.com and twitter. Posts on kivawalk.com usually come with pictures, videos and an entry of what he is up to currently. For more information about Kiva Walk,Lend a Loan on Kiva or be on his Walk Lending Team, please click on the links listed below. I was privileged to be in a class with Jonathan called Community Change. He always provided the class with innovative ideas and is such a positive person to be around!



Hope that you guys check this out & get inspired!
