Kausar Bibi metal shop, Lahore, Pakistan


This time I have actually not been to Lahore, Pakistan and there was no eating done. Kausar Bibi (in the background, with her husband) is a mother of five. I have never met her, but I did lend her some money. To help her grow her metal shop business. She already started repaying her loan. Kiva.org is making all this happen. People give micro loans to people where there is not enough "interest" from and for the banks. Grameen started the whole movement.



Kiva - Loans that do change lives. If it is true or if enough people believe it is true.
