March 1, 2019

How are you celebrating International Women’s Day next week? Here at Kiva, we’re celebrating by rallying to fund 10,000 women entrepreneurs in one week! In more than 80 countries around the world, women entrepreneurs are using Kiva loans to fund their businesses, get an education or buy needed tools so they can increase their standard of living and provide a better life for their families.

Watch the story of Juliana and Marina, two women in Guatemala who used Kiva loans to finance their weaving and farming businesses and create a better future for their children.
