A loan helped to buy bales of used clothes to sell.


Santos Sofia's story

Doña Santos is a successful merchant who has grown her business thanks to the financial support she received from Kiva and MiCrédito. With the profits she earned, she was able to support her child as a single mother.

Santos has returned to request another Kiva loan from MiCrédito. She will buy bales of used clothes to restock and strengthen her business. With this investment, she hopes to increase her income. Her short-term goals are to empower her business and remodel her home.
