A loan helped a member to buy hair extensions, hair relaxers, yarn, beads, and various other products for her salon.


Wendsongda De Tabtenga Gs Group's story

Wendsongda De Tabtenga Gs Group just finished its first loan and the repayments were made on time. Laurentine, a group representative, thanks all the staff and Kiva lenders for their support. With the loan, Laurentine was able to buy hair extensions, relaxers, wool, beads, and many other products for her salon. She made a profit that allowed her to pay for her children's school fees, and cover some family expenses. Most importantly, it allowed her to grow her business.
She still needs more loans to continue her business. She wants to restock in larger quantities to meet customer demand and ensure continued growth.

In this group: Laurentine , Hermine, Claudine
