speaking of dopeness attached to a great cause, a few week weeks ago i caught a program that featured an organization that facilitates microloans to people in developing countries: www.kiva.org. the essence of it is giving individuals in the developing world the opportunity to start businesses in their communities while also giving people who want to help, the chance to do so on a more personal level. it is not just a faceless donation, it is an investment in the lives of others; and the organization works to help people both start their business, and repay the loans. it definitely was dope to see how these small loans affect the lives of people trying to make a better way for themselves/families...

loans that change lives
