SparkIL is a tech startup building a peer-to-peer platform where lenders can support small businesses in Israel. We are connecting Jews around the world to Israel while advancing their social causes. Using an innovative technology platform we engage lenders in venture philanthropy, a spin on social impact investing. All the while the lenders are supporting small and micro businesses on the social, economic, and geographic periphery of Israel. SparkIL launched in June 2022 and is scaling up quickly. Our team is working to build pipelines for the borrowers, lenders, and funders. Interns will be hands on in growing SparkIL and have an opportunity to work in all facets of the business.
