A loan helped to buy chicken, guinea pig, rabbits and feed.


Bety Del Rosario's story

Bety Is a 46-year-old woman. She lives with her family in a humble home she managed to make with a lot of effort. She is Colombian and thanks to a helping hand from Tulcaneños, who helped her to establish herself, she has managed to get ahead with her family.

She learned how to raise small animals from her mom to survive. That is how she started with this work when she could not find a steady job to cover her families needs. Bety now works part time and tends to her animals in the afternoon since she already knows that this work will supply her household with extra income.

She wishes to boost her small animal raising by buying chicken, guinea pigs, rabbits and feed. In this way she hopes to have more earnings after selling said animals in the animal marketplace.
