Kfir Gavrieli is the proud CEO of the well-known shoe company Tieks. They create very comfortable ballet flats. The company has achieved many different things and is a well-known leader in its industry. An example of that is that they were one of the first companies to reach global wide with only selling online.

A lot of businessmen and businesswomen are about the bottom line meaning that they want to be as successful as possible and make as much money as they can. While there is nothing wrong with being successful and wanting that. It is not all there is to life. Kfir Gavrieli understands that and that is why he wanted to be part of a successful company as a way to be able to give back to others.

Through the success of Tieks, they have been able to give back to women at the community level. They do this by helping provide loans for aspiring entrepreneurs that are currently living at the poverty level. They are giving a hand up not a handout. To give those women the ability to be able to pull themselves out of poverty which is incredibly hard to do. But once it is done it allows them to not only care for their families but allows them to give more into their local economy which will help them build that up as well.

The company has been able to be a partner in this with the creation of the Gavrieli Foundation which has partnered up with KIVA which is the platform through which the loans for these entrepreneurs are ran through.

To date, the foundation is proud and honored to have had the ability to provide more than $10,000,000 in microloans to help those aspiring entrepreneurs. Making them the largest lender in KIVA. Read this article for more information.
