Three years ago my son gave me a gift that I am still enjoying. It was a $25 gift certificate to use at Kiva. This is an organization where you make mirco loans to a person or group of people around the world. You get to choose who you want to make a loan to and over a period of time they repay the loan and then you can turn around and make another loan to another. I am on my 5th loan off of the original $25 Christmas gift. Since I am a female and a crafter I try and find a woman who is involved in some sort of local handicrafts.
