Retail is a quick and scalable way to begin earning a profit. Many entrepreneurs entrepreneur begin with stalls at markets or even at home and need a loan to expand or increase their inventory. Others may be ready to open a small store. Goods purchased from loan funds range from clothing, grocery or sundry items to jewelry, candy, perfume or health and beauty supplies. Loans in the commerce sector account for around 33% of our loans.

The community of Nyarutovu is located in a hilly area, with access to the road that leads into Kigali, Rwanda’s capital city. Families depend on crops, including passion fruit, green vegetables, and bananas, for income. The climate is characterized by three seasons—a short rainy season, a long dry season, and a long rainy season. The area is served by one small river.
More than 2,500 women in the community lost their husbands in the genocide of the 1990s and now struggle to generate income, often while dealing with the effects of HIV and AIDS. Many children in Nyarutovu live in child-headed households, eat only one meal a day, and don’t attend school.
In Nyarutovu, World Vision is constructing classrooms equipped with toilets, providing educational supplies and paying school fees, building homes for orphans and vulnerable children, ensuring that those with HIV and AIDS have access to medical care, and building water tanks for access to safe water.

Jean Baptiste received his loan and used it to buy another motorbike. The loan helped him replace a motorbike that had been damaged in an accident.
He is still trying to keep up with loan payments.
Jean Baptiste was not able to use his loan for the planned purposes. The motorbike he was using had an accident and was damaged, but the loan allowed him to buy a new one.
Jean has been able to provide his family a better life; but, because of the accident, he was not able to fulfill all of his plans--he has not seen a profit yet so has not been able to help his family as much as he would like.
Jean would like to thank his donors for their good works. In the future, he hopes to get another loan which he can use properly.
Jean is finished repaying his loan.
