Give the Gift That Keeps on Giving

Our own "Ways of the World", Carol Stone has written about micro-loans, "Lasting Peace" Requires People "To Break Out of Poverty" (10/13/06) and you may have wondered how could I do that? How can you help someone break that cycle of poverty with a loan? Well at www.kiva.org you can do just that. "Kiva lets you connect with and loan money to unique small businesses in the developing world." Then, when your loan is repaid you can (withdraw) or re-loan it all over again! How cool is that?! AND you can give it as a gift certificate.
