Millions of people around the world can’t access the financial resources they need to thrive. Kiva is an international nonprofit that tackles this inequality. With your support, we’re able to help people like Jovurane. After drought impacted her banana farm, Jovurane opened a convenience store to support her family, bringing new and hard-to-find products to her rural refugee community. Jovurane now runs two businesses and no longer worries about putting food on the table — and best of all, her children can now get an education.
