The All Saints Youth Group had a Kiva Micro-loan party and distributed more than $1,000 to complete and secure the loans for five Kiva recipients. The loans are for materials, goods, and supplies for people in Kenya, Egypt, the Philippines, and Peru to sustain and expand their family businesses.
Our loan to one recipient, Elenita (see her photo at the right), helped to buy ingredients for her food production business in the Philippines.
