Just thought I would share this site that I use to give charitable micro loans to small entrepreneurs in developing parts of the worlds.

It doesn't cost you anything but the interest on your capital and you can lend as little as $25. Its a great thing to do and I believe an immensely valuable way of helping those less fortunate than ourselves.

Find out more and sign up @ Kiva - Loans that change lives

Thanks for reading folks.

Yep - I've used it too - it's a nice way of lending out what seems a small amount to people like us, but is a huge amount to them, and for the most part, they all pay back in full eventually!

Echo that!

Its a great thing to do. Its really makes such a big difference to peoples lives. They work hard to pay back the money and its great just to be a small part of that!
