\"Mission<\/a><\/p>\n

It is getting down to the wire. If you weren’t paying attention when we listed out our 12 Days Of Gifts<\/a><\/strong> and you didn’t take action on any of those ideas, not to worry. We’re still rocking this gift game and the good news is you still have time to help the one you love hold their pants up with a rockin’, totally adjustable belt from Mission Belt Co.<\/a><\/strong> <\/p>\n

Mission belts don’t have holes. They have a ratchet systems that allows for a perfect fit each and every time they go on. And better yet, you’re not just getting high tech leather belt, you’re also helping to end world hunger. Mission Belt Co. gives one dollar from the sale<\/a><\/strong> of each belt to the micro lending site Kiva.org<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

For each Mission Belt sold we contribute a dollar into a Kiva fund that then gets lent out to borrowers in developing countries who are seeking money to support their small business operations. We\u2019re not talking about expensive factory equipment or a new tractor, but rather what we might consider a relatively cheap income producing asset, like a cow that produces milk, or a few hundred dollars worth of supplies that can be resold for a profit. In this way, our Mission isn\u2019t just satisfying people\u2019s immediate needs, but giving them the means for an improved standard of living that will last the rest of their life.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So with this gift, you’re holding up someone’s pants and helping to change the world through local economics all at the same time. And, if you order a belt by noon mountain time on December 19, 2014 (that’s tomorrow), you’ll get the belt by Christmas and everyone’s happy.<\/p>\n
