A loan helped to buy fertilizers and to pay for labor.


Olga Marina's story

Olga Marina is 47, has three children, and lives with her family in Trujillo, Colón. Previously, she carried out domestic duties in the home, but 12 years ago, she started growing palms at her residence. She is applying for a loan of 20,000 lempiras to invest in buying fertilizers and paying for labor to improve her production. This loan will allow her to optimize her farming work and strengthen her business. She aims to expand her crop and plant more palms to improve her yield.

Translated from Spanish by Kiva volunteer Kelly Dass.
