The 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Kiva loans were just as easy as the first.

In addition, to the loans ($25 each) I also donated 10% to Kiva ($2.50 each).

Again I choose Samoans. Even if I am not related by blood, our identical physical statues provide the bond.

I wish these women all the best…

Here is my loan link to my loan:

Faleupolu Siu’s business is a taro plantation and a fruit farm. Faleupolu is now fifty-five and used to be very bad at counting money. This problem delayed her intention of wanting to start a small business. She has six children who were all raised and supported on her husband’s income of $16 a day from his work. Apart from his work, he also does fishing for extra earning for his children’s school fees. Two of their children have now graduated and are employed in Government Departments.

When Faleupolu actually joined our program, we took extra time to really teach her how to run a business and handle cash. She is now handling her business alone without any help, and is aiming for future improvement in their family business.

Here is my loan link to my loan:

Aimeamata Peniamina is a young single lady of thirty-nine years of age who is not ready to tie the knot yet. She has worked really hard to help her parents with their family’s living. Her grandmother taught her elei printing when she was sixteen and now she is self-sustainable. Her business is elei materials and sells them to the public stores for quite a good price. Aimeamata is grateful to her grandmother for teaching her how to do this, as she now able to rely on it for a living. She will use her loan to buy the materials needed to make her products more fancy. She thanks the S.P.B.D for lending her the money so that she is able to go on with her business. She has a strong heart and feels that she can do better and earn money, before she ties the knot.

Here is my loan link to my loan:

Naomi Ah-Ching is a hard-working woman who scarcely rests from working with her husband at developing their plantation business. She is thirty years old and has four children and they are all attending school.

Striking hard for a better future for her children, Naomi sells anything from her plantation in order to make money. Products like bananas, coconuts, taro, and yams are what she sells at the market in town where most people come to buy. She uses her loans to buy equipment to help her make her work easier and faster. She earns more than a hundred tala (about US$ 40) a day from her selling. Naomi much appreciates the help of S.P.B.D for women who need a boost toward developing their micro-businesses.
