Okay so yes, I just started Kiva today and I am sure everyone has loans they love but I really love this lady. I think her idea of a "call center" is right on! Had to post this up!

When I was browsing for a KivaShoppingClub choice, I found this one, but someone else must have hit the Fund button a split second before I did, and I missed it.

This lady's husband was killed in a car accident, and now she's supporting the family.

I've made a variety of loans - most of them friend referral bonuses, but I figure on gradually replacing that money with my own money as those loans are paid off.  But this is one loan I *had* to support - with my own money, because it was ineligible for bonus use.  Some might say that perfume is a very inessential item, but I think people deserve bread AND roses...and this little shop looks so carefully and lovingly arranged.  Kemal mixes his own perfumes as well as selling ready-made ones.

 Welcome

Welcome to Kivafriends, Anne!
I agree that a bit of beauty, of whatever kind speaks to the individual, is a necessity of life.
I also think that an air conditioner should be considered a necessity for doing business in Palestine!  Nice loan.

Yes, lovely as the shop is, I was wincing a bit at the thought of being in there without air conditioning...in Gaza.  Probably a little too fragrant!

Well, Kamel just got fully funded, so go him.  It's a long repayment schedule, but I don't mind having that in my portfolio.

Thanks for the welcome!
