A loan helped to buy pigs and pig feed.


Briseida Lorena's story

Briseida is 46 years old. She is married and has two children. Briseida lives in a rural area of Santa Ana. She has property there, a house and some land.

Briseida has raised pigs for 17 years. She has always been a hardworking woman who likes to have her own income. She started working with loans from Banco Visión Fund Ecuador, and this has helped her to work and support her home.

Briseida wants to keep working to support her children because she wants them to have a good education. She is asking for a loan to buy pigs and pig feed. With this investment, she will be able to increase the amount of pigs she is raising to sell.
