Patricia Lukindo

Thank you for your loan. It has been disbursed to Patricia Lukindo by Sero Lease and Finance Ltd. (SELFINA) in Tanzania. We are excited to watch this business grow. Over the next 12 months, Sero Lease and Finance Ltd. (SELFINA) will be collecting repayments from this entrepreneur and posting progress updates on the Kiva website.

Mambo from Dar es Salaam! The purpose of this journal is to update you on Patricia Lukindo, a SELFINA client and micro-entrepreneur, who received a loan from you through Kiva.

Patricia used her loan of $275 to buy soda, juice, and biscuits in bulk for her general store. Since the store was doing extremely well, she wanted to use the profits from it to expand into a business that could allow her to make even larger profits – so she invested in a beauty salon and used the money that she got from selling the store’s inventory to buy hair dryers, and to pay rent on the salon. While she used to make TSh 75,000 per month from the store after receiving the loan, she earns approximately $400 per month from the salon! She has used the increased profits to buy and donate books and clothes to a local orphanage in Tabata, and to repay her loan. She is planning to take out a second loan to help her buy dryers and steamers for her salon.

SELFINA aims to continue to assist Patricia and other women like her and empower them towards financial security and increased confidence through microloans. Thank you for your generosity in supporting Patricia! To continue to lend to SELFINA borrowers, please click here:
