Google has announced the 10 to the 100th Project ("May Those Who Help The Most Win") in which they are calling for ideas that change the world by helping as many people as possible. They are putting $10 million into the best 5 ideas as voted by Google users. Although some of the wording sounds like maybe they are looking for ideas yet to be implemented, the FAQ indicates that existing organizations are welcome too.

Many more details can be found here:

I've sent off a note to contactus as the form to submit someone like Kiva.org requires what I think is some marketing type descriptions that would probably best come from them. Voting starts next January.
