Today's charity is Kiva! Have you heard of it? It's genius! Kiva's mission is to alleviate poverty by allowing individuals to loan money to people in need in the developing world. It's the world's first person-to-person micro-lending website. You simply browse the profiles and choose which entrepreneur you want to lend to, business ideas vary widely, as do the amounts that people are requesting. Some people only need a few hundred dollars to start their dream business! You can loan as little as $25, or you can loan thousands. I plan on loaning to a woman who needs to purchase yam seeds, corn, palm oil, bananas, and peppers for her small business. I am so excited about this innovative charity, check it out!Posts with tag kiva
