Have you heard of Kiva Loans? They allow you and I "to lend mondey to a specific entreprenuur in the developing world - empowering them to lift themselves out of poverty." I just heard of them the other day but they sound really cool. I really like the idea of putting money directly in to the hands of those who really need it and might not have access to it through any other channels.

I checked out this organization awhile ago when our small group was looking to give toward micro-loan organizations. they seem pretty cool and I liked how there seemed to be good communication and the possibility of a relationship (somewhat).
Yeah - I heard of them on GMA this week and Matt Lauer(I think - I was actually listening to GMA on my radio) was in the country (Africa I think) talking with the person he had loaned money to. Very cool.
