Holiday Charity for Dec. 30th - Trickle Up

I've been fascinated with microcredit and microloans ever since my friend Mike wrote me an e-mail explaining the concept. Today's charity is Trickle Up, an organization that has been working to help the lowest income people worldwide take the first step up out of poverty, by providing conditional seed capital and business training essential to the launch of a microenterprise. Unlike Kiva.org, you don't get to track your donation, but Trickle Up does keep a detailed blog on their website about their ongoing projects in several countries. Please check out Trickle Up's website and consider helping out with what you can.

To make a donation, follow this link. Don't want to give money, but still want to help, check out the materials needed by Trickle Up and consider making an In-kind donation here.

And remember to let me know if you make a donation. I'll send you some Consumatron.com buttons and enter you into a drawing for one of our sweatshirts. Read this post for more information.
