Helping out others

Your teacher has acquired some money for your group to invest. We will be investing the money through Kiva.org. Kiva is an organization that funds people's endeavours  in the developing world to better their living conditions.  In your group, explore and search the various activities that we can help with our money. We are studying Africa right now, so focus your search in Africa. When your group has made a decision, let the teacher know which group to give money to. Then-

Below blog about the decision your group has come to about who is getting the money and why your group decided to help out this person, activity, group. Give a least three reasons for your choice.  Give your names in the post.

  4. RAY AND ANDREW123456789 Catherine is a married woman with two children, both of who attend school. Catherine lives in a rental house that has neither electricity or piped water. Her greatest monthly expenses are food and school fees.

    Catherine operates a charcoal selling business, selling from home to her neighbors and passersby. She faces stiff competition from firewood operators in her business. In addition she also operates a bar business that earns her another source of income.

    With the KES 50,000 she wants to purchase sacks of charcoal for resale. She decided to join Yehu to access loans to boost her business.

    We would like to help Rabiu because we think that everyone deserves an education. He needs to pay for his children's school fees because schooling is important for kids at any age. Rabiu is a hard working maize farmer and the last thing he should have to worry about is his children not having a education.
