We sometimes think we don't have it all, but in reality, we CCGs are truly more fortunate than most others in this world. Which is why it's important for us to give back to our community--both locally and abroad. Microfinancing is a relatively new concept that essentially involves the "haves" of the world assisting the "have-nots". Learn more about the concept by viewing this video on Kiva, which is arguably the world's current leading microlending institution:

I've actually donated to kiva and am on my second loan (the 1st one repaid and I turned over the proceeds to another business). It's a great experience! Join the Crazy Canucks group so we can show the world that Canada gives back!
