Everyone has heard of Kiva.org...the amazing microfinance organization where you can choose a loan recipient to give micro loans to for their small business ventures. Its a great poverty fighting tool. Now along comes Energy in Common, another microfinance org whose loans go to fighting ENERGY poverty. So cool. The current entrepreneurs are accepting loans to install solar home systems and clean stoves. Makes sense...the more "light time" the more kids can study and men and women can work to provide for their families. Check it out!
