A loan helped to buy chickens, corn, potatoes and quinoa.


Fredy's story

Fredy is a healthy, responsible and kind young man. He lives with his mother and younger brother. His family is of limited means, so he works to help his mother with his brother's schooling and the other household expenses.

Fredy wants to be a driver and get a better job, and he is trying hard to reach his goal. His business consists of raising laying hens to get eggs; this way he can generate income and contribute to his household.

He would like to increase his business's productivity, so he is asking for a loan to be use to finance the purchase of hens, corn, potatoes and quinoa. This way he will be able to produce more eggs to sell, improving his revenue and bringing him closer to his dream of studying industrial design at the university.
