Free advertising for Kiva

I'd like to introduce you to a really neat micro-lending

website. I use this one myself. It allows you to lend

small amounts of money to people who run small

businesses in developing countries.

You get to see photos of the prospective borrowers,

and read of their plans. When they pay back the loans,

you can re-loan the money to someone else.


"Kiva's mission is to connect people through lending for the sake of alleviating poverty.

Kiva is the world's first person-to-person micro-lending website, empowering individuals to lend to unique entrepreneurs around the globe."
