Day 124: $25 to Kiva MicroFunds

I've always been interested in donating to Kiva microfunds which I think is such a laudable organization. For some reason, I could never muster up the will to give $25 which, I think, is the minimum amount. I guess I'm just getting used to donating between one and ten dollars. It feels less painful.  When I discovered that I could redeem my credit card reward points at Charity Choice earlier this year, the idea of giving away $25 became a lot more palatable.  Then I discovered that Kiva is one of the organizations listed on the Charity Choice website. It seemed like a perfect match, but I have one disappointment. I didn't get to choose the person or cause that I wanted to lend money to.  Somehow this seems integral to the whole process.  Maybe I'll have to try out Kiva again, next time trying to not be so damn cheap.
