From the reader who earlier recommended Kiva:
“exciting stuff! My christmas loan is being paid back already.”
Here is the letter from Kiva:
Dear [Kiva Sponser],
The business you have loaned to, trade of vegetables run by Hayom
Ayomov, has made a repayment of $91.00. The total amount repaid is now
$364.00. This repayment will be divided amongst all the lenders who
helped to fund this business, depending upon the percentage each lender
contributed.
Best wishes,
Kiva Staff
