WEEC loan default
 
Entrepreneur: Celina Wanjiku Mwangi
Location: Muranga, Kenya

Kiva recently notified you that your loan to the business or businesses above will not be repaid in full and is now considered defaulted. As a reminder, any amount of this loan that has been collected by Kiva is available to you as Kiva Credit. You can re-lend this Kiva Credit to another business, withdraw it or donate to Kiva on our website: www.kiva.org.

Reason for default:

All entrepreneur profiles on Kiva’s website are posted by local Field Partners. This particular business was posted by our Kenyan Field Partner, the Women’s Economic Empowerment Consort (WEEC).

WEEC is currently experiencing significant operational difficulties that have caused all active WEEC loans to default. It is important to note that in many cases the entrepreneur repaid the loan to WEEC in full and did benefit from your loan. However, WEEC has experienced operational problems caused by a number of factors, including the unexpected death of WEEC’s founder and Executive Director, poor management of funds, and economic and political unrest in Kenya. Together, these factors produced a situation where Kiva is unable to get a 100% clear account of your specific loan and recover your full loan amount from WEEC.

To learn more, please visit:

We hope you realize that this outcome is an exception to the norm when lending at Kiva and that you’ll give lending another chance. If you have any questions, please let us know and thanks again for your ongoing support.

Sincerely,

Shelby Clark

Kiva Staff
