Update on our Kiva loan to Angel Group in Peru

Thursday, July 8th, 2010

The members of the Angel Village Bank paid back their loan on time in
March 2010. Afterwards, they took out another loan which they are also
repaying on time.

Moises used his loan to improve his business, in which he sells general
groceries. He has a little store with his wife, and says that it is
doing very well with the support of his bank. Moises has been a member
of FINCA Peru for 3 years now, and appreciates all the training that has
increased his knowledge of how to manage a business. His dream now is to
buy more land for his house. The attached picture of the Angel village
bank was taken on July 7th, 2010.
