Juan is a young man who decided to make the land he was born in grow. After several years of working outside his native land, he nostalgically returned to it and dedicated himself to planting corn, potato, and alfalfa. He accomplishes this through the cultivation of his own land and others that he has rented. He sells his harvest in a local market, and with a great deal of effort has managed to increase his production little by little. Thanks to his investment, he has seen his earnings increase month by month, and these bring him his daily wages and the full satisfaction of his needs. With his constant hard work, he has decided to continue expanding his labor in order to diversify his crops and bring employment to more farmers in his community. Bringing about his goal requires a loan of $375, which will permit him to purchase better seeds and optimize his yearly planting. He requests your generous support in his goal of quickly making his plans a reality.

Juan es un joven que se decidió a progresar en la tierra que lo vió nacer y tras varios años de laborar fuera de su tierra natal, regreso a ella con nostalgia y se dedicó a la siembra de maíz, papa y alfalfa.Esta actividad la realiza a través del cultivo de sus propias tierras y otras que ha arrendado; la cosecha que obtiene la lleva para comercializarla en el mercado local, con mucho esfuerzo ha logrado incrementar poco a poco su producción y también gracias a la inversión que hizo ha visto aumentar sus ganancias mes a mes, estas a su vez le permiten el sustento diario y la satisfacción plena de sus necesidades.Con su constante forma de trabajo ha tomado la decisión de seguir ampliando su campo de acción con el propósito de masificar sus productos de cultivo y otorgarle empleo a más campesinos de su comunidad.Para llevar a cabo este anhelo requiere un préstamo por 375 dólares, esta cantidad le permitirá adquirir mejor calidad de semillas para optimizar su siembra anual. Solicita tu generoso apoyo con el objetivo de concretar sus planes en corto tiempo.

Una excelente producción
 
Entrepreneur: Juan Carlos
Location: Huancayo, Peru

Gracias al crédito obtenido, Juan Carlos pudo mejorar su capital de trabajo para la agricultura, lo que le ha traído buenos resultados, ya que sus terrenos de cultivos tuvieron una excelente producción de maíz, papa y alfalfa, productos que han sido comercializados en los mercados de su ciudad. Ahora Juan Carlos tiene un buen capital para iniciar nuevamente sus sembríos sin tener que preocuparse por los abonos, debido a que cuenta con un respaldo de dinero que obtuvo con sus ganancias de su última producción, pero seguirá trabajando con su banco comunal pues es una alternativa de desarrollo para él y para la futura familia que desea conformar.
