Melva Lucelina and her family live in La Sequita, Montecristi. It is well known for its famous toquilla straw hats, prized both nationally and internationally. Its residents also work in agriculture and animal husbandry.
Melva Lucelina is an excellent hard-working woman who raises and sells chickens and pigs in her free time. She raises them until they are large and weigh a good amount. She then sells them to merchants and her neighbors, who come to buy them. She and her husband slaughter and sell the meat to local residents. She also sells rice, oil, sugar, noodles, eggs, and various food preparation products, and also sells gas. In the evenings, she prepares and sells grilled chicken wings, which are highly sought after by her customers who come to taste them.
She is very grateful to the people who support her with loans, as their support is invaluable and helps them live a good life.
This loan is for the purchase of small pigs and chickens, gas, animal feed, rice, coal, water troughs, feeders, etc.
