Adding to basket
José, 33, is single and lives in a rural village in a family home. A hard worker, he splits his time between agriculture, animal husbandry, and a small business that allows him to supplement his income.
José's greatest dream is to build his own house. To carry out this project, he wants to expand his businesses to increase his profits.
José is requesting the support of the Kiva lenders so that he can buy 2 pigs and 100kg of pig feed. After fatttening the pigs, he will resell them in the market of a neighboring town. Then, he will repeat the cycle so that he can continue to expand his livestock business. The profits will be carefully saved, in cash and in kind, so that he can gradually make progress toward his goal of becoming a homeowner.
