Martha Imelda Gonzalez' Venta de ropa y calzado

Instead of sitting here moaning about immigration, I decided that there is one area that is often overlooked: helping Mexico out of poverty so that they can have a good life there. I found a cool way to do it, which is actually quite painless. www.kiva.org sets up micro-loans to entrepreneurs in various countries throughout the world in places such as African countries, Azerbaijan, Mexico and others.

The total loan is for $1200, but my share is $475. You can give as little as $25. The loan is repaid, sans interest and then I get my money back. Cool!
