A loan helped to buy corn, prepare the land, and pay for labor to cultivate a bigger plot.


Fatima Abigail's story

Fátima studied until the 9th grade. She has a life partner who works as a day laborer, and of her 2 children, only of them is currently studying.

Fátima works along with her partner in farming, an activity she learned from her parents since they are both farmers. She cultivates in a plot right next to her house, and her work schedule tends to change throughout the day. When she is not taking care of her crops, she is taking care of the house.

She will use the loan to cultivate corn, prepare the land, and pay for labor. This will allow her to cultivate a bigger plot and increase her yield.

Her dream is to give her kids financial stability. With the support of this loan she will be able to improve her harvests and the profits she gets from these sales.
