Give to global entrepreneurship
http://marketplacemoney.publicradio.org/display/web/2007/06/08/microloans/
Looking for a new way to be charitable? How about lending to a business on the other side of the world? New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof did, and traveled to meet his beneficiaries. He talks to Tess Vigeland.
TESS VIGELAND: One of the most common questions we get here is, "What can I do with my money to make a difference?" The obvious choice is charitable giving - of both your money and your time. But now there's another choice: microfinancing.
Normally, microfinancing happens on a larger scale. Banks and other financial outfits lend small amounts of money to people who are too poor to get a traditional loan. Usually, in the developing world. But several organizations - like Kiva.org - now allow you to become a microlender. You go on a website, pick what project you want to finance, and in six months or a year, you get your money back.
New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof recently wrote about some loans that he's made. -

Kiva lets you connect with and loan money to unique small businesses in the developing world. By choosing a business on Kiva.org, you can "sponsor a business" and help the world's working poor make great strides towards economic independence. Throughout the course of the loan (usually 6-12 months), you can receive email journal updates from the business you've sponsored. As loans are repaid, you get your loan money back.
