Leynie lives in the village of Cabaruan, Naguilian, Isabela. She is 22 years old and married to Edgar Asuncion who is 23 years old and employed as a restaurant cook. The couple is already blessed with one child, baby Shayna who is 2 months old.

Leynie has seen her neighbor’s success with a Kiva loan and thinks that she too can use one to her advantage. She is requesting to borrow PHP 5,000. She believes that through the loan she can add things to her store that will help her expand her business.

She started her store two years ago because she wanted to be able to have a higher income for their child and future children. She also wanted her business to expand into other services such retailing cell phone minutes. At the moment, Leynie’s family lives with her parents since they don’t yet have enough savings to build their own house.
