EDITOR'S COMMENT:

This is a followup to yesterday's post about Kiva:

KIVA: AN INNOVATIVE WAY TO HELP PEOPLE IN THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES (9/28/2007):
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nhnenews/message/13547

After sending out the message above, I heard back, almost immediately, from other NHNEers who decided to join Kiva and help folks in third world countries. And it occurred to me it would be fun to create a web page for those of us who have decided to lend a hand. Along with helping create a sense of community -- that we are all working on a project together -- it would also give us a chance, at a glance, to see how many other NHNEers are participating and who all the folks are that are benefiting from our efforts.

If you would like to be listed on this page, here's what to do: go to the profiles of one of the people you are supporting on Kiva and scroll down until you see your name. Then click on that. You'll see a list of the people you are supporting, along with a "Portfolio Distribution" summary that summarizes your support by gender, country, and sector. Here's what mine currently looks like:

Email me the link to your page.

Once I've created NHNE's Kiva page, I will add your link to it and create a special mailing list for those of us who have decided to participate and send out related updates.

Could be fun. I hope many of you decide to participate!

With Love & Best Wishes,
