| KIVA Sunday- In response to our review of the book Half
the Skies we decided to have a time during the coffee hour on
February 14th to help people navigate the KIVA web site, and
consider making small loans to people in poor countries. We will
have several lap top computers set up and people available to help
you go through the web site. A $25 loan can make a huge difference
in the life of a poor family overseas. You can pick which country
and which small business you would like to support. You can get to
the KIVA website at www.KIVA.org.
Go to the Community section and search for Smyrna United Church of
Christ. Join our team and then consider making a loan |
