Also changed "those in the world that" to "those in the world who." Minor adjustment that most aren't even aware of, but when dealing with THINGS, you use that, when dealing w/ people, use who. Smile

Thanks to Stanmore and Tecmo!!

I´m actually aware of the difference between "that" and "who" but for some reason I just miss it too often ... Frown

Ah - and hats off again to Tecmo for this. I feel there´s developing something real big and I´m proud to be allowed being part of it.

I miss it constantly so no worries Smile I try my best to re-read all of my posts, and look up spellings and whatnot when I'm not sure. For example, I just typed the word dialogue in a different post and DC's spellchecker puts a red squiggly under it. I looked up the spelling just to make sure that I was right and DC's spellchecker was wrong.

Also, I'm so used to putting 2 spaces after the period that it's a difficult habit to break. (They recently changed the rules so that you only need 1 space after a period. It was an old rule for typewriters.)

ANYWAY, enough about that crap Smile

I too hope/think that this could continue to grow. Nothing big ever happens without the people WHO Wink help you in the first place so my hat goes off to everyone in this thread!

Two new loans made, both in the Dominican Republic (one of the poorest nations in the Western Hemisphere).

A loan to a small store looking to expand their inventory and services.

Another loan to help a small butcher shop expand after the untimely death of the owner's husband.

Best part is, the first loan was made with with money that was paid back from previous loans. Re-lending, woo!

I've been in Kiva for quite a long time, but now I noticed this topic. I joined the 'buy in 2 giving' team right away and made four new loans:

Kabagambe Bonefansi $25.00
Ra's Group $25.00
Simon Muigai Mbuthia $25.00
Justus $25.00

Let's keep up the good work!
