Katherine Fulton draws a clear picture on what each of us is able to achieve if she/he just acts. I’ve made my first good experience with one of the organizations mentioned by Katherine: kiva.org. I’ve lent 250 USD to eight small entrepreneurs in Benin, Cambodia, Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru, and Tajikistan. My default rate is currently 0.0%. So, please give it a try. It’s easy to complain about the banking system and the liquidity crisis. You can make a difference.
