   			Anesia is a businesswoman who is passionate about creating new opportunities and empowering female entrepreneurship. She is interested in starting a Jibu water franchise in Rulindo, Rwanda. She will be a great influence in the market, and she is hopeful that the impact to the society will be huge and interesting. This loan will fund all of the necessary costs to establish the franchise and ensure its efficient operations, including storefront build-out, staff training, overhead support, and sourcing. It will also cover shipping and installation of her Jibu water filtration unit.

Jibu is a social enterprise pioneering a powerful new model that capitalizes and equips entrepreneurs in emerging market communities to own businesses that ensure access to basic human necessities, with water as an anchor product. Driven by a belief in the power of eye-to-eye partnership to unleash latent entrepreneurial talent, Jibu is transforming the challenge of addressing basic human needs into an expansive opportunity that allows thousands of entrepreneurs to build lasting solutions, one neighborhood at a time. The company’s vision is to train, finance, and grow a network of co-invested business owners, like Anesia, who will revolutionize the way critical resources are leveraged to develop essential infrastructure in emerging markets.
