Dear all: I get every day requests of money of a lot of interesting and important projects related to independent news, Truth, Electronic Intifada, Countercurrents and many others. I try always to send 20 or 30 dollars to every one, because I use them and want them to survive. Today I got a letter from Kiva, www.kiva.org, a superb service targetting people in the Thirld World who need small loans to start an enterprise or make one to survive. I support a lot of small projects in Kiva with 25 dollars each, when the people pays back I reloan to other people. Kiva is an excellent modell, why can we not start a similar service to all of us working with alternative Art and Activism? Marc and Ruth, check the Kiva's interface, very simple and well done Ana, on holiday in Uruguay, my old homecountry :)
