Payday was yesterday. 1 year ago

I made some loans today.

Ufiufi Malaefono in Samoa. Taro Farm – http://www.kiva.org/app.php?page=businesses&action=about&id=5144

Davi Rose in Ghana. Food Sales. http://www.kiva.org/app.php?page=businesses&action=about&id=5844

Justina Macheve in Mozambique. General store. http://www.kiva.org/app.php?page=businesses&action=about&id=6096

Many of these women provide the sole support for their families, so I really want to help them out. Especailly women who are older, who will have to work their entire lives because they don’t have the option of putting money into Social Security or 401K.

We are SO fortunate in this country. Reading the stories on Kiva makes my problems seem trivial.

Share the dream, visit Kiva.org and see whose life you can help change for the better.



I'm scheduling this on a biweekly basis. 1 year ago

Every payday I will lend some money. If I give $25 per paycheck, it works out to $650 a year. It’s not enough money that it will be missed. It will be fun to read about the people requesting money and select someone to help out.



Now this has become a group effort! 1 year ago

Even better. I guess we will find 43 people who need microloans and fund them. I hope not all at a once. :) Actually that works out to $1075 per person if we all gave $25 – not that bad really.

Let’s see what happens with my first “group” goal.

I guess I’d better setup a PayPal account.
