NOTE: On September 17, 2015, all remaining outstanding loans (full and
partially paid) were unilaterally forgiven by the founder of
Lend4Health. Additionally, all remaining money in the Lend4Health account (from
partial repayments from recipients, or refused/unclaimed repayments to
lenders) was donated to the Thinking Mom's Revolution non-profit
organization, TEAM TMR. The amount donated was $4,882.39.
The founder of Lend4Health admits that she did
not follow through on making partial repayments back to the lenders in the case
of partially-repaid-then-defaulted loans, nor did she pursue robust debt
collection from families who had stopped making repayments, or who had
never made any repayments. (For clarification, ALL fully repaid loans WERE repaid to the original lenders.)
The founder of Lend4Health apologizes sincerely to the
wonderful Lend4Health lender community for not holding up my end of the
deal as I had promised. (Example: I had said that, if you loaned 5% of a loan that was later only partially repaid, you would get 5% of the repaid amount back. I also had said that I would send follow-up notices for 6 months after a loan had become due in order to pursue debt repayment. I did some followup, but I just didn't have the "heart" to be a debt collector.
It is my sincere hope, after much deep contemplation, that most of
you will support my unilateral decision to pass these (your!) funds along to TEAM TMR so
that you can "pay it forward" to help more kids. If you do not support this decision, I humbly ask for your forgiveness.
Thank you so much to
everybody for supporting Lend4Health and for amazing (and humbling) me
time and again with your generosity and enthusiasm while helping strangers. If you have any questions, please
let me know at lend4health@gmail.com. I will keep this email address
active for a while. Please accept my sincere thanks and good wishes for the future! --Tori
