Lendwithcare

Dear Charlie,
Here's a suggestion for those of you who have no idea what to give people for Christmas, and hope to reduce inequalities and poverty in the world. The article and the concept should also appeal to the economists among you, or those of you interested in economic alternatives.

Get lending! Maybe I should myself!

  1. It's a brilliant idea and more than appropriate for Christmas. The issue is that those charities are based in the UK which makes the donation process a bit more complex. So I've chosen SOS Méditerranée about whom I've already written an article on the blog. (Look for it! 😉) and who have been recently supported by our MDL.
