www.kiva.org – Kiva lets you make a loan to a specific low-income entrepreneur — empowering them to lift themselves out of poverty. Blanca Monterroza González, Costa Rica, Clothing http Blanca is a 40-year-old woman from Santa Barbara, Heredia, a poor region in the Central Valley of Costa Rica. She is a single mother of two children who completed 9th grade. In the past, Blanca has received two previous loans of 500000 colones,each that were repaid on time and in full. This will be her third loan from Fundacion Mujer and she is happy to be applying for a larger amount than she has in the past (650000 colones). The name of Blanca´s business is “Confecciones Monterroza” (Monterroza Apparel). Blanca makes and alters clothing. Her specialty is creating children’s pajamas. She makes more profit from selling pajamas than from other types of clothing. She also makes womens clothes (blouses, skirts) and offers various customized products. Blanca sells her clothes to a distributor who comes to her home in Santa Barabara every 15 days. The distributor purchases childrens pajamas (for ages 12 and under) and womens clothing to sell throughout Costa Rica. Blanca has been in this business for 20 years. She opened her business with an initial investment of 125000 colones from loans from a friend and her sister. In a good month, she can earn 500000 colones; in a bad month, only 300000. Blanca plans to use this loan to purchase raw materials and invest in a new sewing machine. Blanca has

This is a rehearsal video of a contemporary/modern dance I choreographed for the 60×60 Project- check out www.voxnovus.com for more information. Basically, the performance consists of 60 1 minute pieces of music that are randomly assigned to dancers or performers that apply, and they then choreograph 1 minute to the music. The final performance is an hour long montage of 60 1 minute pieces. It’s pretty damn awesome! So for this piece I actually choreographed the dance to the second piece of music, then switched it to the first piece. I decided to wear this 80’s prom dress that I wore to high school homecoming one year. This was performed in Columbus, OH on Oct. 3.

SUBSCRIBE if you love it!: www.youtube.com TWITTER: www.twitter.com This elegant look can be worn practically anywhere, but is perfect for upcoming prom season! Dress it up with a pair of dangling earrings, or dress it down with small studs. It is very simple to recreate and doesn’t require many products. This look will save you tons of money on paying someone at a salon to do your hair for prom! You will need: 1 Inch curling cron Hairspray Comb Elastic hairtie Small Rubberband Bobby pin Tutorial on how I curl my hair: www.youtube.com Makeup tutorial on the makeup in this video: www.youtube.com **The lighting in this video is terrible, it goes in and out the whole video–I apologize ahead of time! I just got back to school from spring break & my apartment bathroom doesn’t have a window (ie no natural light) so I will have to come up with a better solution for future videos–please bare with me for this one though!
