How I did it: A kick in the ass I was asking for and got it from aswedishlime: 

" Go to kiva.org, find an entrepreneur that really strikes a chord with

you (you may search my world region, gender, or business type), and

there will be an option to “Lend” with the smallest amount being $25.


To “pay” you’ll be led to Paypal, and the transaction will happen in a

matter of minutes. Pretty simple, and feels awesome!Oh, and I

tend to look at the success rate of the field partner. I feel like the

higher the rate, the more efficient the partner is at lending and

collecting the loan. Kiva is just the ‘middle man.’ "

Lessons & tips: Ask around and find out how appealing this goal is to the people have accomplished this. You can start with a minimum amount of $25 and help some serious good small businesses around the world.

Too frikkin' easy!
