Luyen's loan finished fundraising, but these other borrowers need your support

A loan helped to purchase fishing gear and other materials necessary for fishing.

Luyen's story

Ms. Luyen is a dynamic woman who is married with 3 children. She lives in a village where many people make their living by fishing.

Luyen saw that her business would be profitable if she had money to invest in fishing gear. Thus, she is asking for a loan to purchase fishing gear and other materials necessary for fishing. She hopes this loan can expand her business and raise her income, so she can have a better life.
