Each year, MW Investment Strategy Group has made year-end contributions to a variety of charitable causes as part of a commitment to give something back to the community. In the past, we have contributed to America's Second Harvest, the American Red Cross, Doctors without Borders, and Habitat for Humanity among others.

While still personally supportive of these excellent organizations, this year I am using our entire company charitable budget - as well as the money saved by not sending out a holiday card in 2007 - to fund an account at Kiva, a US nonprofit that provides micro-loans to individual entrepreneurs in developing nations. If you are interested, you can view my portfolio of micro-loans to date here.
