Learning Spanish That Affects Others


Olsen is 20 years old, and single with no children. He is studying kinesiology. He is an entrepreneur, responsible, independent, reliable and hard working.
He works and lives in Bolivia in the area of Cruze Villa Adela, an area characterized for being the nexus which links various towns to the city. It has a cold and dry climate and an altitude of about 3800 meters above sea level.

Olsen is studying kinesiology at a university, and is in his fourth semester and has to now take part in a professional internship. His dream is to graduate and to open his own physiotherapy office to help all those who require his services, especially seniors. He wishes to make the purchase of some medical equipment for kinesiology because his internship is starting and he requires that material. 
Spanish students loaned $135 to Olsen through KIVA.org and he is now fully funded!

Students in our class researched individuals on sites like Kiva.org and others, presented candidates to the class and we voted on who we wanted to fund.  Olsen was one of three individuals that we supported.
