The Lovely Brenda showed me this website, Kiva.org, where you can lend money to business people in third world countries.  It is really amazing because you are donating money to help people with their businesses and you can see directly what your money is doing.  Then at some point they pay you back and you can take that money and lend it to someone else.  So over the course of a few years you could help many people with a donation as low as 25 dollars.  I think it is amazing.  I am going to be lending some money for sure, I hope you guys do the same.  Check out Bill Clinton talking up the program on of all places, Fox News.
