Jantaloans is a website from the Janta Foundation that facilitates microloans and scholarships to help poor students from all over the world finance their education. Through this website, people can find profiles of students and invest in them by lending at least $25.
Users can lend money to poor by sending money through a Paypal or credit card transaction. Jantaloans then sends the funds to their field partners once the full amount needed has been raised. After a period of time, the website tracks the academic progress of the students and loan repayments while updating users who have invested in them.
The small amount that you loan can go a long way to help these students. Jantaloans sends a powerful message that anyone can help, even from your computer desk.
