Sunday, September 20, 2009

We are delighted to announce that Eva, our first borrower, recently got sworn in as a United States citizen.  Thanks to hard work, perseverance, and an $875 loan from Capital Good Fund, Eva was able to apply for citizenship back in March, and the swearing in ceremony—held at the International Institute of Rhode Island—was the culmination of an exciting process for CGF and Eva alike!  Click here to see photos and more thoughts from the event!
