Alright....new, improved (if only in length), tweetable bits!  Three more days, people! ...and I'll never ask you to tweet again!   Laugh

I was born lucky. Shouldnt I lend a hand 2 those who werent? Microloans thru Kiva.org to th hardworking poor, worldwide!

When I was down, someone gave me a hand up. Now I pay it forward by loaning to the poor via Kiva.org: microloans 2 th world

2 whom much is given, much is expected. I never knew how rich I was until I started lending 2 the working poor via Kiva.org

Microloans via Kiva.org: I lent $50 to a man in Togo to start a café. He hired 5 people. Now 6 people have jobs bcuz of me!

I am a believer in th greatness of my friends all over th world who support th working poor w/loans thru Kiva.org. Join us!

 Friends

My friends & I loan 2 the working poor thru Kiva.org. We help create businesses, jobs, and HOPE in people around the world!

A loan 2 a worker in a poor nation helps not only that person, but their family, country, & ultimately the world. Kiva.org

Give someone an infusion of HOPE as well as cash: fund a microloan at Kiva.org & change the world, one loan at a time!

(partially stolen from Fiona):
My joy is loaning 2 th poor via Kiva.org: recipients already know how to fish. They just need a loan so they can buy a net!

Loaning to the poor thru Kiva.org is a respectful way to help someone. A loan isnt a handout but rather a helping hand.

Nonny - I liked the last one but I changed it so the link works...

@RealHughJackman Loaning to the poor http://www.Kiva.org is a respectful way to help someone - not a handout but rather a helping hand.
