Brewed to Success: Summit Grounds Fully Funded on Kiva!
We are thrilled to congratulate Summit Grounds, founded by Gina Cordoba—a proud U.S. Army veteran and first-generation Colombian-American—on securing her funding goal of $11,500 through Kiva.org!
Gina’s passion for coffee and sustainability shines through every cup. By sourcing premium beans directly from small-scale Colombian farmers, she ensures every batch roasted in South Carolina supports a more equitable, sustainable supply chain. These funds will help Gina purchase inventory, upgrade her equipment, and continue expanding her pop-up events.
With the support of 153 lenders from around the world, Gina's vision is now a reality. We can't wait to see how her business grows from here!
Lowcountry Local First is proud to serve as a Kiva Trustee through the Lowcountry Kiva Hub . As a trusted community partner, we identify, endorse and offer support to small business owners who are ready to grow, helping them unlock 0% interest funding through Kiva. By participating in this social underwriting model, we’re helping to provide equitable access to capital while investing in the people and businesses that directly strengthen our local economy.
