This is Rut Castillo Cardenas, Regina Rodriguez De Ipeña, and Norma Esperanza Leon. I lent them money through Kiva.org and today they are the first loan I have made that has been fully paid back. You can find out more about these ladies and their lives by clicking here.
My grandmother loved Peru. She said that the people in South America, despite being horribly oppressed by corrupt governments manage to remain happy. She felt their bright clothes was a small symbol of defiance.
I loan money because I believe the best way to make the world a safer place, is to give everyone something to live for. A loan is small difference, but it’s mine. What are you doing?
