It’s been a long and winding road from Tunisia to San Antonio for restauranteur AbdelBasset Ridene. With help from LISC partner @culturingua , Ridene is growing his business with a $3,500 no-interest loan he got through @Kiva, with matching dollars from LISC and @WellsFargo. 1/2

Last week’s ruling "will have a far reaching and devastating impact on equity and the wellbeing of women and families in underserved communities and those living with economic instability. For LISC, Friday’s decision has deepened our resolve to address these gaps."
The SCOTUS decision to overturn Roe v. Wade impacts equity and freedom of choice for all women, but it especially affects women in historically marginalized communities. #RoeVWade
