Hello Kiva Lenders,

Earlier this month, an AMK client officer visited the Putthi Sam village in Cambodia's Takeo Province to get an update on Mrs. Dorn Hang, leader of the village bank loan. The loan was recently paid back in full.

Mrs. Dorn Hang ran into some trouble when the soil in her 1-hectare rice field started to become infertile, affecting her crop. She used her loan amount of 300,000 Riel ($75 USD) to buy some fertilizer. As a result, she said that her field has yielded much more rice and that her rice business has experienced an increase in profit. Additionally, she is anticipating that sales will be greater than last year's despite the setback. With the additional profits, she has been able to start a savings for her family. And with her rice field back to normal, she plans on taking another loan out with AMK in order to hire laborers to plow and work on the field.

She told us that the other group loan members had no problem paying back their portion of the loan and the entire group wanted to thank Kiva lenders for funding their loan through AMK!
