Spartan Global Development Fund Spartan Global provides microloans to aspiring entrepreneurs in the developing world by raising money and awareness in our community.

Spartan Global is a student-run initiative at Michigan State University. A 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Spartan Global consists of students, professors, and alumni. Members work to expand awareness and support for microfinance while building lasting partnerships in the quest for permanent solutions to global poverty. Spartan Global maintains a loan portfolio on Kiva to connect with hundreds of funding agencies. Through Kiva, we have distributed over 2,000 loans to individuals and cooperatives in 67 countries. Spartan Global also seeks partnerships with other organizations. Through our field partners, we undertake new investment projects that directly reach those in need of microfinance services.
