I continue to be a huge fan of Kiva with a most recent loan going to the Jeg Diam Group from the small west African nation of Senegal. This business approached Kiva to request a loan for purchase of equipment for processing fruits and vegetables and is just one of thousands of businesses Kiva has helped succeed through micro loans. Fantastic idea and fantastic charity.

"Kiva's mission is to connect people through lending for the sake of alleviating poverty and is the world's first person-to-person micro-lending website, empowering individuals to lend to unique entrepreneurs around the globe."
