While scrolling down on the Kiva website, we found a women named Deyanira.  She lives in Mexico. She needed a loan for re-building walls and a roof above the kitchen for her family’s house.

Her family has been living in Mexico for 25 years and they have done so much for their daughter.  Now Deyanira wants to give back to her parents, who paid for her education and supported her. In Mexico, people make about $15,600 each year and the average American makes about $52,800 — which means the average Mexican makes $37,200 less than Americans!
