Habiba is a married mother of four. Because her husband cannot find work, the economic well-being of her family depends upon selling the milk of her three cows at the bazaar. Habiba is seeking a loan to buy more dairy cows and expand production, allowing her to bring more milk to market; this will provide a greater degree of income stability for her family and establish a sustainable business for the future of her and her children.
