The best thing about running a site that helps people find a cosmetology school is helping people make their dreams a reality. By helping people go to school, we’re giving people a road to a new life, but it’s up to them to take it.

Imagine how thrilled we were to learn about Kiva.org. This website works with microlending organizations in poor nations to help people who normally couldn’t apply for credit get loans to start or expand their businesses. The loans give them an opportunity to improve their lives, but rely on the hardwork of the entrepreneurs to make it a reality.

We feel that they are kindred spirits, so we’re pitching in to help. We’ve found some entrepreneurs who are working on their own beauty businesses and helped fund their efforts. Check out all our sponsored businesses. Or lend to your own.

The best part of the site is that it isn’t charity, it’s a loan. That means that the person will pay it back, and we can then loan it to another person!
