Adding to basket
Melie has finished repaying her loan. She had success. She channeled her profits into the purchase of a rice field. She is satisfied and thanks the lenders very much for supporting her.
Now she wants to further strengthen her barn. She needs another loan. She therefore asks again for the support of the lenders to buy a dairy cow. She will continue to deposit her profits into savings in order to complete the finishing of their house.

A présent, elle souhaite renforcer davantage son étable. Elle a encore besoin d'un autre emprunt. Elle redemande alors l'appui des prêteurs pour acheter une vache laitière. Elle va continuer à déposer en épargne ses bénéfices afin de réaliser la finition de leur maison.
Vahatra is a non-profit organization that provides low-income families in Madagascar with opportunities for education, healthcare, professional training, and family services. The organization specifically targets families who earn an average income of $1 or less per day per person, and evaluates each family's need to provide unique and tailored services. With Kiva's assistance, Vahatra will be able to provide loans for more people, therefore providing low-income families with new opportunities.
Kiva loans are facilitated through 2 models, partner and direct, that enable us to reach the greatest number of people around the world.
For partner loans, borrowers apply to a local Lending Partner, which manages the loan on the ground. Lending Partners are responsible for screening borrowers, disbursing loans, posting borrowers to the Kiva website for funding, collecting repayments and otherwise administering Kiva loans on the ground to borrowers.
For direct loans, borrowers apply through the Kiva website and may or may not be endorsed by a Trustee. Unlike Lending Partners, Trustees don't handle any financial transactions or have any duty to repay loans on behalf of their borrowers. Instead, Trustees take the role of providing support and business advice to their borrowers throughout the term of the loan.
A Lending Partner's average loan size is expressed as a percentage of the country's gross national annual income per capita. Loans that are smaller (that is, as a lower percentage of gross national income per capita) are generally made to more economically disadvantaged populations. However, these same loans are generally more costly for the Lending Partner to originate, disburse and collect.
Loan tags help lenders find loans that match certain areas of interest.
