It’s time to give back. I’ve been thinking about it for years and 2010 is going to be a year of actions. So, to begin acting on my goals, I registered with Kiva today. Here’s a screen shot of the loans that Picotte Photography has out helping 4 entrepreneurs build their business. I feel so honored to be giving back and highly encourage you to investigate what Kiva is all about.
Giving back!
