A loan helped to buy chickens, chicken feed, and medicine.


Yelena Natividad's story

Yelena Natividad and her family live in Portoviejo, a city of honest and hardworking people, beautiful country landscapes, and beaches of unmatched beauty.

She is a very hardworking young woman who is looking to earn money to pay for her educational expenses and to help her family get ahead. Thanks to her prior loan, she is making progress on these goals. For that, she is very grateful and asks for continued support.

She works raising chickens. She buys them when they are small and keeps them until they reach a good weight. Then she sells them to merchants who come to her home or by the pound to neighbors and local acquaintances.

This loan is to buy chickens, chicken feed, and medicine.

Translated from Spanish by Kiva volunteer Alex Goehring.


This loan is special because:

It is accompanied by useful, real-life business training.
