Digna, 37, lives with her husband and children in the house she inherited from her parents.

For nine years she has been raising cattle. She has two cows and a calf. She takes care of them with much dedication while she runs a filling station (establishment that sells fuel), which is located in the middle of the countryside.

The benefit of this place is that there is enough grass to adequately feed her cows. Digna enjoys her work, and she enjoys it even more when she sees the earnings from her efforts. In the future she would like to buy more animals to have a better stocked farm.

This is her third loan with MFP. She is very happy to be part of her communal bank. She promises again to be punctual with her payments. The money she is asking for is to buy another heifer.

Digna tiene 37 años, vive con su esposo y sus hijos en la casa que heredó de sus padres. Desde hace 9 años se dedica a la crianza de ganado vacuno, tiene 2 vacas y una ternera, las cuales cuida con mucha dedicación mientras atiende un grifo (establecimiento de venta de combustible) ubicado en medio del campo. Lo beneficioso de este lugar es que hay suficiente pasto para alimentar adecuadamente a sus vacas. Digna disfruta de su trabajo y aun más, cuando ve las ganancias de su esfuerzo. Para el futuro desea comprar más animales para tener una granja implementada.
Esta es la tercera vez que tiene un crédito con MFP y está muy contenta de ser parte de su banco comunal, por lo que se compromete nuevamente a ser puntual con sus pagos. El dinero que viene solicitando será invertido en la compra de vaquillona más.
