Pedro, Kiva is absolutely a super initiative who is on the same “poverty eradication train” as us.

We differ from Kiva on many points though:

1) We are building a comprehensive and engaging community that makes it possible for both investor and entrepreneur to communicate with an intensity, frequency and pace desired by the individual.

2) No matter who and where your business partner is, the “same” principals and respect as used anywhere else must govern the business (argued on our blog by Kasper: http://c4-world.com/2007/02/20/a-question-for-you/#comments) – which is why we are building the sustainability upon Return On Investment.

3) We have a lot of additional ideas to be tested during the build-up phase – do you want to know more or even have an impact on how MyC4.com will work, you should definitely sign-up as a MyC4-builder on our site!

We highly appreciate and respect initiatives/businesses that have the same goal as we do (eradicate poverty!) AND we believe that there is room for many here!
