Sweet! Kiva Donation!

So for my birthday I got a Kiva Donation from my friend Nikki. So I am now sponsoring Awa Guèye from Senegal.

Awa Guèye is 53 years old, widowed with 7 children and 10 other people in her care, and has been a member of the village bank of Lélo in Thiès for 8 years. She is seeking a loan to buy and re-sell local fruit such as mangoes. With her income, she improves the living conditions of her children. The loan she is asking for will be reimbursed at the end of six months in a single payment.

------------------

I figure that any person who is supporting 17 people, not including themselves is indeed someone who has the drive to make things happen. Someone who can't afford to fail in life. This is someone most definitely worth supporting.

If you feel it is right, you can donate as little as $25 to support someone else who just needs to borrow your $25 to get a little momentum in their business and make a difference.
