Poreh's Ebola Recovery Group's story

Poreh M (first from right), featured borrower of Poreh's Ebola Recovery Group, would like to sincerely thank all the Kiva lenders for their first loan. It enabled them to break free from the local lenders who were charging them nearly 100% interest, and as a result, all group members have fully recovered their businesses, have repaid their first loan, and are successfully farming again after the devastation of Ebola. The group is now seeking a second loan to expand their farming efforts further. Poreh and her group will use their new profits to create a reserve fund, accessible to female farmers in the village who have suffered crop failure or injury on the farm.

In this group: Poreh, Isatu, Kadiatu, Mariama, Amie, Ramatu, Umu, Hawa, Amie, Sallay, Aminata, Isata, Mariama, Fatu, Kadiatu
