Martina after her race
Congratulations to Martina Welke for her great race in the 2009 Seattle Marathon! We are humbled to have Martina as our first marathon-runner supporter. Martina encouraged her friends and family to make Vittana loans in support of her race. We are thrilled to announce that by rallying together they raised a grand total of $875 in student loans!
Thank you Martina for advocating the work that Vittana does, we really appreciate your commitment. And thank you to everyone who was a part of the Welke Team and who showed their support for Martina by making loans. It is because of individual lenders like you all that our student borrowers have the funds they need to go to school.
Check out Martina’s blog if you want to read more about her decision to run a marathon for microfinance, and her training for the big day.
