Location:
VA United States
Occupation:
Senior Pre Law Student
I loan because:
I grew up a single family home and was always taught by my mother to "Give Back When You Can" whenever and wherever possible.

I really like the idea of Kiva, they have opened up the door to so many possibilites to others in need. "To help those in need is like winning $1 million dollars...only the reward last a lifetime." (Shona)

My step father is from Lagos in Nigeria, (has been a US resident for 7 years)and I hear so many stories about everyday life in the country of Nigeria. I want to make a change whether it be big or small and this is my chance. Thanks Kiva!
About me:
I go to school FT and my major is Pre-Law
I study a lot, I also have a job but school is my main concern right now.

“Knowledge is power. Information is liberating. Education is the premise of progress, in every society, in every family.” (Kofi Annan)
