Matilda's story
Matilda is a 25-year-old entrepreneur who lives with her parents and siblings in Bongo district in Ghana. With her previous Kiva loan, she expanded her business. She used the profit she earned to support her family needs.
Matilda is requesting another loan to buy a variety of hair extensions and accessories for her business. She plans to use the profit she earns to reinvest in her business.
She will repay the 'social interest' on her second loan by volunteering 2.5 hours per week as a Camfed Business Mentor, leading sessions to teach less experienced local women how to become successful entrepreneurs by developing their business acumen and sharing the lessons she learned from operating her business.
