Kiva loans

Mom, Dad, Parker and Marshal, did you use your kiva loans yet? Ryan gave me one for Christmas as well and I loaned it to a young family in Cambodia. The wife is a rice farmer, the husband is a blacksmith, he makes agricultural tools. They are using the loan to stock up on steel so he can build more tools to sell. Also, they have a five year old son.

Just curious who you guys ended up loaning to?

We are going to get to that as soon as the last of our company heads home. I am excited to pick someone to help out and will let you know when I get it done. Thanks again for the thoughtful gift. Just so you know this is Mom not Parker.

I was gonna say, that comment was a little more eloquent than parker usually is; example: "so i am bored. hmmm. so my basketball coach is really hairy. he obviously shaves his back. he missed a patch. so he has this patch about 4 inches long nsty."

haha nice. yeah i am still trying to decide what to donate to. I will probably end up donating to Gaibullo Barotov. He is trying to get a loan to convert his taxi to natural gas, which I think is a good thing to do for are ozone layer.
