give one new Kiva loan per month for a year

I have done the loan a month for 12 months. Guess I never wrote about the last loan. But I am continuing to give out loans.

I think I have about 20 either done or in progress. Maybe I can get to 43 soon?

I had got busy this month and had forgot about the Kiva loans until I got an e:mail from Kiva telling me about credit I now had due to previous loans being repaid. I now had over $50 in credit so this allowed me to make 2 loans this month.

One went to Nguyen Thi Sy in Viet Nam who wanted a loan to expand a motorcycle repair business.

The other went to Djamoliddin Rahmonov in Tajikistan, who is a farmer and needs a loan for potatoe seeds and fertilizer.

Good Luck to both of them in all their endevours.

This month’s loan goes to Sara Esmirna Sánchez Chávez. She runs a grocery store in Managua, Nicaragua. She needs the loan to help her purchase products for her store and improve her business.

I hope it works. Good Luck Sara.

This month’s loan goes to Luis Antonio Fuentes Meza in Managua, Nicaragua.

Don Luis is in retail food sales. The plans that he has for his family are to improve the living conditions and to prepare his children for a profession. Don Luís has had the shop for four years and started it with his own resources by his work. In the economic field, he wants to increase the sales of new products preferred by his clients.

Good Luck Don Luis. I hope this loan helps you achieve your goals.

This month’s loan goes to the Esmirna Severino Garcia Group.
I was struck by the opening statement in the discription of this group.

This group consists of five rich women that live in Quita Sueños, an impoverished community located in Cotuí. These women are said to be rich, not because they have money, but they want to reach great dreams in the future.

Good Luck ladies. I hope your dreams come true.

This months loan went to María Elena Garza Lara in Mexico. She runs a retail business, now in shoe sales. The idea to work in sales allows María Elena the income to help her husband, who is a contractor, with the costs of the home and the education of their children.

Good luck to Maria.

This months loan went to the Padre San Jacinto Group in Peru. This is a diverse group of small business people looking to expand each of their businesses in Peru. They do everything from raising livestock to the restaurant business.

I hope this loan enables them to expand their businesses.

And this is my first loan that will go toward the 43things team established on the Kiva site. Join the team if you are so inclined. It’s a good way to help “teach people to fish”.

This month’s loan went to a woman in Viet Nam, Nguyen Thi Nhung, who raises ducks for their eggs. She supplies them to her neighborhood. She wants a loan to buy and breed more ducks.

I like eggs. I hope she does well.

This months loan went to a group in the Domincan Republic, Hebreo, Group 1. This is a group of 5 women who are expanding a clothing and accessory store.
Good luck to them and all their hopes and needs.

This months loan went to Maria De Jesus Esquivel Rodriguez in Mexico. She has a small food supply (resturant) and needs money for supplies, as she usually rents things like tableclothes.

I hope she does well.
