Thanks Kiva Lenders! You've funded EVERY loan on the site!!

To date, Kiva has enabled lenders to send $57,438,685 to the working poor 
around the world.
Currently, we are experiencing a traffic spike and all previously 
fundraising loans have been fully funded. Our team is working with Kiva's 
Field Partners around the globe to approve new loan applications every day.

This is certainly counter-intuitive to me, considering the economic 
situation. Does anybody have a psychological one? :)
