A loan helped to buy 20 zinc sheets. In this way she will be able to fix the roof over her daughters' bedrooms.


Elida Cristina's story

Elida's home has improved notably thanks to the previous loans that Kiva and Kiva's field partner have provided. Currently she is needing to address problems with the ceiling in the bedrooms, and for that reason she is asking for a loan from Kiva's field partner MiCrédito in order to buy 20 zinc sheets. In this way she will be able to fix the roof over the bedrooms of her daughters. The next step will be to invest in improvements to the kitchen.
