This is a committee formed in an indigenous community in the city of San Juan Nepomuceno. They are all grateful for the opportunity the foundation is offering them, particularly the ability to access a loan to help their families.
One of them is Catalina, who works with her spouse in agriculture and comments that they have a modest field where they produce everything and, with this, they pay for the household necessities.
She asks for this loan to purchase seeds, soil amendments, and other products to be able to continue working the land.
Note: There is only one person in the photo, but this is a group loan. A group photo was not possible to prevent the gathering of people due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In this group: Eugenia, Catalina, Lidia, Vicenta, Mariana, Margarita, Vicenta Kiminagi, Amelia, Lea, Nancy Krajagi, Teofila, Maribel, Sadi, Castorina, Silvina Jukugi
