A dream come true…

I have always had the dream of owning and operating a restaurant…although if I were to cook the menu would be limited…in conjunction with the dream I have just returned from Mexico where I always enjoy eating copious amounts of tacos from street stands and vendors…my friends Jason and Matt were joking at the border about buying a taco cart and towing it home across the border…well low and behold, the next best thing…thanks to the Kiva my dream has come true…along with my guys d-group we have decided to loan some money we collected together to Simon Guzman Albiso who currently operates a taco and torta business from the back of his motorcycle (this guy is one of my new heroes, motorcycles, tacos and tortas!!!)…he needed a loan to make his mobile business more stable by building a stand…I am so excited about being an investor in a taco stand…but more importantly to help a man make a better life for himself and his family…I am already praying for Mr. Albiso, his family and his business…the guys and I are also going to try to visit his stand if at all possible…oh by the way we also loaned to a woman hoping to expand her market in Mexico…micro-lending rules!!!…graceandpeace…

  1. Kiva looks like a good company to work with. This is one of many ways to help people that do not have as much money as we have.

  2. That’s awesome. Thanks for the story.
