Recently I was able to meet with this organization, which is an NGO centered around the idea of microcredit, and the ease in which small amounts of money can have direct and lasting impact on people around the world.
I will post more about this later, but wanted to get this online as soon as possible.
In short, for the price of what you pay for one lunch, that same dollar amount, in microcredit loan form, believe it or not, can launch a small business, develop a new product or provide the ability to plant crops, etc.

Take a look.
