Chaely Sleeps Forever

What do you buy for the person who has everything?  What do you do with that holiday bonus that will do more good for more people than buying yourself a Wii could?

Kiva.org is a unique way to donate money to a good cause.  Why?  Because in the end you get your money back.

The way Kiva works is people (most of them from poor countries) request loans for specific purposes such as buying & opening a grocery store or purchasing livestock to begin a farm.  You donate money to them in whatever increment you decide.  Once their venture begins making money they repay their loans and you get your money back to either keep or lend to another person.

Once you check out the website and read all of the specifics the hard part won’t be deciding if you would like to donate, but figuring out which entreprenuer to support.  Now that you’re older and you have a job, pass along some of your good fortune and help these people fulfill their modest dreams.
