    I just posted these goals in the team goals page, mostly to remind ourselves we seem to be overachieving in some respects. We did not know we were to smile on Saturday when we set the member goal.:)

    (I actually thought I had posted those on Kiva, but it must have been in my mind only)

    We have beat the membership goal, are close to the number of loans goal and need less than $121,000 in loans to meet our dollar goal. Let's strive to make all three goals?

    Question -- if I make a loan and it is not funded, does my loan even though refunded get added to the team total? Does it stay as part of my total?

    Refunded loans count in your totals and the team totals. In your Portfolio, you will also be able to see the # of expired loans.

    We are 185 loans from 55 000

    and

    $120 000 from $3.25M, still a ways to go in the last half of the month, but also still a lot of repayments still to be made! Keep it up!

    UPDATE:

    We have now passed the 55 000 loan mark and are under a $1K away from $300K for the month (4th time in Milepoint history).

    Still a bit away ($98K) from this month's goal of $3.25M, but lets try our best to Make it So (apologies to Jean-Luc Picard for taking your phrase! :) ) We have 12 days left to make this amazing target!

    That is just a bit over $2,000 a day. We can do it.

    Now a total of $300,025 loaned this month. :cool:

    We're currently sitting at $3,165,850 total, less than $84,000 from this month's goal of $3,250,000.

    Our next goal should perhaps be slightly less ambitious - how about...
    - $3,500,000
    - 1,100 team members
    - 58,000 loans

    Too much/too little?

    maybe a little lower on the $ amount - $3.425?

    Remembering that this is for July, generally a very slow month;
    Were it up to me I'd select:
    $3,400,000
    1,100 members
    57,000 loans

    Please take into account that striking MPKLTers may start loaning again in July. Unless Kiva merges with Barefoot Power.

    I think this is good. That is 250k if we make our target. Which is about right.

    If me make $3.25MM, I'm ok with $3.5MM; if we don't, I suggest the $3.4MM

    Shall we shoot for $3.4m then?

    We are just $72,000 short of $3.25 million and have several days left. $3.5m may be a stretch, but we should beat $3.4m may be too easy. Let's split the difference and go for $3.45m.

    We are headed to finish the month around $3,19-3,2M.

    To get to-------------------we will need to lend
    $3,4M----------------------$200-210K
    $3,425M------------------$225-235K
    $3,45M--------------------$250-260K
    $3,475M------------------$275-285K
    $3,5M---------------------$300-310K

    I agree with jbcarioca that July may be a very slow lending month and a realistic target is $3,4M, which is still likely to be the top or second biggest lending team for the month!

    We are now number 27th in members, just two short of 26th place. Let's keep pushing for new members.

    Don't mean to pee in the Cheerios, but I don't think we're going to make the $3.25MM this month... which means that $3.4MM is going to be more of a stretch. I revise my suggestion to $3.35MM.

    Forgot to add the standings from the Community page...

      1,072 members have lent $3,180,075 in 55,738 loans

    Agree.

    jbcarioca Gold Member

    I agree also, but we may still have more loans to go this month, especially because of the Omidyar challenge.

    I'll add new goals for $3,350,000 etc. :)

    Which number is right? If I click on the "goals" in Kiva team, I see

    Goal update*
    3,222,550 of 3,250,000

    But if I look on the community page, I see
    1,076 members have lent $3,188,450 in 55,937 loans

    Community page is the accurate one. Goal page is often off.

    Thanks. That's usually where I look, but when I saw the Goal page, I went :confused:
