Is it charity? Is it profit? I think the business model here is a bit wacked. For the truly poor, $300 is probably a year's work. The cyber cafes serve up internet access; the universities allow for learning skills. So what is this, but a way to make money and hang a continuing debt around the folks that probably understand financing the least? This comes off as a cynical way to exploit the poor, if you ask me.
