Loans are complex!

What it does

Lending circles - in the palm of your hands. Lending circles help participants in groups raise money for various expenses such as car down payments, debts and small-business investments. The circle consists of a group of people lending money to each other at very low or no cost. However, in light of the current pandemic or due to geographical constraints, it’s sometimes difficult to meet in groups. Using OurFund, a virtual form of lending circles, you can lend/donate/gift money to members within the group.
