In 2020, we launched our partnership pledging to fund Kiva-approved, no-interest loans and extend our support to the neediest people and small businesses across the globe. Additionally, Ocrolus encouraged its customers to contribute to the fund, with a pledge to match customer contributions on top of the company’s core commitment.
