Helinta

Helinta, a 39-year-old married mother with no children from Honiara, runs a small shop in her local community. She joined SPBD to gain access to financial services she cannot access through traditional banks.

With her loan she will purchase a bale of rice, a carton of noodles, tuna, washing and swimming soaps, mixed goods, and snacks to expand her inventory. By increasing the variety of products available, she aims to attract more customers and boost her sales, helping her provide a better life and a secure and stable future for her family.
