Kiva Loan: February

2 down, 10 to go!

February’s Kiva loan goes to Susana, who operates a food stall in Peru. Susana requested $1,100 to buy more inventory for her business. Here’s to getting her shelves stocked and stocked well. I think it feels extra cool to loan to a country you’ve visited!

Since last month’s loan I’ve had two friends/loved ones enter the microfinance game themselves. One was even for my birthday!

Have you made a loan yet?
