A loan helped to buy cooking pots, gourds, stools, canteens and so on, and save to look after her family.


Simone's story

Simone is the mother of 4 children. She has been selling household products for over 13 years in a market in the capital. She has repaid her Kiva loan. She has made repayments on her previous loans. She is applying for a new loan to buy cooking pots, gourds, stools, canteens and other items to meet her customers' needs. She plans to use her profits to reinvest in her business and save to look after her family.

Translated from French by Kiva volunteer Caitlin LeClair.
