Mrs. Inh Sophy lives in Prey Tamao Village in Takeo Province. She is 31 years old and married with three children who all attend the local school. She owns a piece of land where she can cultivate rice. She now faces an obstacle because she does not have animals to plow and must hire someone to do this. Mrs. Inh Sophy would like a loan of $500 for this purpose. She would use the rest of the loan to buy fertilizers and pesticides to make her crop more productive. Her husband, Mr. Tith Torn, is a laborer. Her husband appears with her in the photo.

Thinking big
 
Entrepreneur: Inh Sophy
Location: Prey Tamao Village, Cambodia

Hi,

I am a Kiva Fellow at AMK Cambodia. Last week we had the pleasure of visiting Mrs Inh Sophy in the Takeo province of Cambodia. The journey took us down many long and dusty roads through small villages and past countless waving villagers and school children in their uniforms.

Inh Sophy used her loan of 2m Cambodian Real ($490) to buy fertilizer, pesticide, and to hire a labourer with two oxen to plough the rice field. She said her rice is growing well and will be harvested in two months. She's also planning on asking for a loan to buy fruits and dry fish to sell in a local village. This is clearly a client who thinks big!

Attached is a photo of Inh Sophy during the interview.

Kiva Fellow Sanjaya made a brilliant video about our trip to see these clients, you can see it on the Fellows Blog by clicking on this link.

Thank you for supporting AMK and Kiva. You can find more AMK loans on this page. We'd love to get them all funded by the end of the month, so help us if you can!

Thanks,

Kieran
