Pooling money to help people via Kiva and Donorschoose

 In some ways, the Internet allows us to do what we could also do, but a lot better.

For example, we could always pool money together to help someone out.

Now, we can do it in a way that spans the country, or the world.

For example, via Kiva.org, I have a collection of loans made to small business people, mostly in the West Bank of Palestine. All the money's being paid back, and will be loaned again.

With DonorsChoose.org, I've helped fund a number of classroom projects, like one in South Carolina.

The deal is that we can all help out in ways that work.
