Inspired by Kiva.org, Tori Tuncan set up a non-profit peer to peer lending for alternative treatments of autistic childs. Functioning on a blog and by using Paypal for payments, Lend4Health facilitated more then 30 loans so far. Loan requests are described online, lenders can contributed via ChipIn widgets (Paypal based) and Tori Tuncan posts updates on the progress and how the loan was used.
Companies can help Lend4Health by sponsoring the Paypal fees.
