Finally, we are going to stop giving

In the last Africa issue of Vanity Fair, a great writer summonned Westerners to stop reducing African countries to charity cases.

Indeed, "giving" does more harm then good. Fortunately our society now knows what microfinancing is. Now Kiva helps you get int the heart of it and become a microfinancer yourself. This may be more interesting and satisfying than faking stock market investing.

So go along and loan.
