A loan helped to buy 83 fifty-kilo bags of potatoes and save up to care for her family.


Pouspoko's story

Pouspoko is mother to four children, of whom three are in school. She sells potatoes in a market on the edge of the capital and has been doing so for more than 15 years. She is on her seventh loan cycle with the IMF Yikri and she always pays back her loans, on time and without difficulty. She paid back her second Kiva loan. She is seeking a new loan to buy 83 fifty-kilo bags of potatoes to build up her stock and ultimately resell to her customers. She plans to use the profits to reinvest in her business and save up to care for her family.

She invites everyone to protect themselves from COVID-19.
