Juana Aikins-Mensah is a seamstress who specializes in sewing women’s clothing. She is married and has 5 dependants. Her husband’s income is not sufficient to meet the needs of the family so Juana is working very hard to help with the family’s expenses.



She wishes to improve her conditions of service to attract more customers so she is asking for a loan to buy modern sewing tools and materials to make her work easier.



Important Information About This Loan
Please note that Kiva considers loans to this Field Partner, CRAN, to be particularly HIGH RISK. This organization has had very serious delinquency problems brought about by problems with its credit methodology, local environmental shocks including a depletion of local fisheries in its core area of operation (Cape Coast and the Central Province), and insufficient follow up with late clients. Lenders to this business should be aware that there is an increased risk of not getting repaid on this loan due to the challenges facing the Field Partner.
