A loan helped to purchase raw materials.


Ismoil's story

Ismoil is infinitely grateful to you, dear lenders. He bought his children their school uniforms with that previous loan.

Ismoil is a blacksmith, turning raw materials into various household items. His are the hands of a professional craftsman. Mostly he makes stoves that warm houses over the winter. They are wood-burning stoves that save the homeowners on electricity costs.

He now wants to buy more raw material to make more items for the home, He has a lot of orders on hand, because winter has come, and the snow and the cold will not be far behind. He is hopeful of your support.
