In order to be a successful country, you have to have a successful economy, and this idea will definitely help their economy. This way, you're not only helping one particular business, but you're also helping the entire country.

The advantages to this are 1)the money is used not simply to give people resources, but to help promote industry and business so that they can develop, and 2)that people are more willing to give money that they will most likely get back anyway. People will feel like they are making a difference without technically having to give anything except lending their money for a couple months. Also, like the other post points out, because it's online, it's very very easy to donate your money.Gregory Byloshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04963511943119022245noreply@blogger.com
