Kiva Loans That Change Lives www.kiva.org
Yenku Sesay: Survival to Success Yenku Sesay is a 30 year old Sierra Leonean In 2006 rebel soldiers cut off his hands as punishment for voting When he was 21 years old, Yenku was a double amputee, whose only prospects were begging in the streets of Freetown
Yenku Sesay: Survival to Success Yenku was approached by a  microfinance institution The microfinance institution encouraged Yenku to take a loan of 300,000 Leones (about $100) to start a small business Yenku sold soap, biscuits and small items for a small profit As Yenku made a profit, he reinvested it into the business Yenku now supports his family of three children, and even pays for his younger brother’s schools fees
Hand up, not a hand out Supplies for a store Seed for crops Tools for carpentry Cloth for weaving Materials for making products Yenku’s story is not unique Millions of people around the world could help themselves if they just had access to money for starting or expanding their small business Whether they need tools, seed, fertilizer, cloth, store supplies, it just takes that first step, that start-up capital, to give them a chance to be truly self-sufficient However they cannot apply for a loan from a bank, credit company or credit co-operative because banks typically do not serve the poor
Introduction to Microfinance Microfinance is the provision of financial services to the poor For many in the developing world, savings accounts take the form of livestock Give a man a fish, feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, feed him for a lifetime. What if he knows how to fish,  but just can’t afford a fishing net? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Microfinance works to provide the poor with these financial services, in a safe and controlled environment, through a microfinance institution
Microfinance Institutions ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],There are thousands of microfinance institutions around the world, and they all vary a little depending on the region they are in and people they are targeting to help What ties them all together, however, is a desire to help the poor by providing them with financial services
