erin_bury: Kiva launching in N America – maybe now you’ll be lending to a friend who lost their job instead of someone halfway across the world #mesh09
paiiige: okay, i’m a bit of a charity-phobe. but very much falling in love with kiva.org and its transparency and social/community standing #mesh09
beccatronic: #mesh09 Kiva coming to the US? How will microfinance work in bloated 1st world economy? No question there is need, but $500 doesn’t go far.
cmcglade: #mesh09 fave quote Jessica from Kiva “it is wild to have reality outpace your dreams”. Nice.
