When Kojo's mother borrows money to buy a sewing machine, Kojo asks for some leftover coins to buy a plump brown hen. And when the hen lays eggs, Kojo sells some and uses the proceeds to buy more hens, sell more eggs and save more money. Before long he has enough saved to go to school, where he learns everything he'll need to become a farmer, employ others and eventually give loans to other people just like him. And it all started with just one hen!

One Hen and Then explores what happens when one small loan is given to someone who needs it and uses it to achieve big dreams and uplift an entire community.
