Circle recently began working with AMK, and micro lender in Phnom Penh. Together, the beneficiaries of Circle were able to get a group micro loan which was enough to buy one sewing machine for each of them. This sewing machine is each woman's first and only asset and an important tool to financial independence in the future.The loan is through AMK but it actually originates with Kiva.org, an online "donation-loan" organization which connects people around the world with underprivileged entrepreneurs who wish to borrow money to improve their livelihoods.
Through Kiva.org, Circle will be able to sell our products online next year.
