Rebeca is a mother of two daughter. For 10 years she has worked doing agriculture and livestock tasks. She has quite a few animals, 3 cows and various sheep, which she sells for seasonal use. She also learn to take advantage of the cow excrement to use as fuel when dried. Rebeca sells her agricultural products (onions, potatoes, and broad beans), animals and her cow's milk. She does all of this because she is the financial support of her family and for her children, whom are school aged and have educational expenses. This is the first time that she is requesting a loan with MFP, but she is highly recommended by the communal bank that invited her. The money will be invested in the purchase of natural fertilizer to prepare her crop land for the upcoming planting season.

Rebeca es madre de 2 hijas. Desde hace mas de 10 años se dedica a las tareas agrícolas y ganaderas, posee gran cantidad de animales; como 3 vacas y varias ovejas, las cuales vende por temporadas. Aprendió también a aprovechar el excremento de la vaca para usarla como combustible cuando se seca. Rebeca vende sus productos agrícolas (cebolla, papa y habas), animales y la leche de sus vacas. Esto lo hace porque es el sostén de su familia y sus hijas que están en edad escolar y necesita solventar sus gastos de educación. Es la primera vez que solicita un préstamo con MFP, pero es muy recomendad por el banco comunal que la invitó. El dinero será invertido en la compra de sacos de abono para preparar sus tierras de cultivo para esta campaña de siembra.
