Silicon Valley's Most Effective Philanthropist

Matt Flannery’s work has uplifted over six million families across a hundred countries.

That’s because Matt is one of the godfathers of microfinance. His creations, Kiva and Branch, have delivered billions of dollars in small loans to some of the most forgotten and overlooked people in the world.
