Kiva Fully Funded

I have been brought to tears of joy during each step of this journey! In the beginning, REDC NH offered the most helpful in-person informational session, which I highly recommend to future Kiva applicants! REDC staff was a continued source of support during the application process, answering calls and emails related to my questions.

After the loan approval process, I shared the loan with my personal network AND before I knew it, my loan was in the public fundraising phase, available on Kiva’s global platform.

Thank you to the global community of changemakers!! 172 supporters contributed to my loan. My time with Kiva has just begun, so this is not farewell. The engagement through the Kiva teams, businessowners, corporations and individuals has been truly inspiring!

To all of my local supporters, I am eternally grateful for your faith in my vision. It means so much, as many of you have witnessed the value of our services in the community, you know this win is intentional and important to keep moving the needle forward

Gratefully Yours,
Shaunte

Good Day to all of my wonderful Kiva supporters! We are in the final stretch of fundraising with less than 3 days remaining. We are $2200 away from our goal. During this crucial time, please continue to get the word out. If you haven't had an opportunity to share the loan within your networks this would be the perfect time.

The Kiva community has been the most giving and gracious global community! I am honored you have chosen to contribute to the ongoing impact of SDW Communications. Together, we have made it to the last round of fundraising and for that I am grateful.

With everything on the line in these remaining hours, let's finish fully funded.

Only 9 days left

There is only 9 days left for my loan to be fully funded on Kiva. My loan has been 55% funded, but I need all of you to get me over the finish line.

With only $3,120 left to fundraise, now’s the time for a final push. I can see myself being successful with this loan, we're so close!

I really appreciate the 81 lenders who have supported this journey so far. This is an all or nothing loan. If you can spare the time, please share my loan with your network today.
