I want to you all to learn about Kiva - loans that change lives, a non-profit organisation that allows you to lend as little as $25 to a specific low-income entrepreneur in the developing world.
You choose who to lend to - whether a baker in Afghanistan, a goat herder in Uganda, a farmer in Peru, a restaurateur in Cambodia, or a tailor in Iraq - and as they repay their loan, you get your money back. It’s a powerful and sustainable way to empower someone right now to lift themselves out of poverty.
And, I personally invite three forum users to each redeem a $25 gift certificate issued by Kiva and already payed by me! How will it work? I will send you the gift certificat and you can redeem it at the Kiva site and loan it to any small business you like.
If there are more than 3 persons interested in the gift certificates I will make a small drawing.
To be clear, I'm not affiliated with Kiva, I only like the idea. If you want you can visit my own Kiva page.
