This loan is part of PMS' small and medium-sized enterprises loan program. The goal is to serve the "missing middle," borrowers that require loan amounts too large for typical microfinance, but who are still seen as too risky by commercial institutions. By supporting this loan you are helping generate employment and strengthening the local economy of Haiti, a country that is still recovering from the devastating 2010 earthquake.
