Today we funded our very first Kiva loan! We funded $125 towards Fredrick, who lives in Kenya. Fredrick sells second hand clothes and will be using his loan to purchase additional clothes to expand his business. We are excited by the opportunity to continue to fund additional loans for each website we build. This loan was made possible by our web development for ClearMyGuilt.com.

Check out how Ikromjon stretched his Kiva loan which was meant to expand his livestock to also invest in his cotton business, car repair for his transportation business, build a new room on his house, and fund part of his son’s wedding!
