Mrs. Puy Chum is 44 years old, is a mother of 5 children and lives in Siem Reap province, Cambodia. She works on her farm growing rice crops and a variety of vegetables, but she barely makes enough money to take care of the family’s expenses. Meanwhile, her husband is talented in fishing and he can typically make up to $7/day, which is a big help to the family’s savings. Three of her children are construction workers and two attend school.
Currently, Puy Chum is humbly asking for a loan amount of $1000 to purchase a boat, fishing nets, and other fishery tools which will enable her husband to run his business more efficiently.
