I just wanted to let all of you know that the family has decided to make a meager investment through Kiva to start the new year off on a good note.  If you are not familiar with Kiva, check them out at their website www.kiva.org

They are an organization that connects people from the developed world to people from developing worlds, providing micro-loans for small business owners that really need some seed money.  I think the great thing about it is you get to help better someones life, but they aren’t asking for a handout.  They just need some seed money to start businesses.

If I get updates on the person we decided to help out I will report back to all of you.
