Zhyldyzkan successfully repaid her earlier loan, she is very grateful to the Kiva Foundation and to everybody who helped her with the financing. Her farm today has 4 cows as well as a land share of 2.5 hectares where she grows beans.
In order to further develop her business, Zhyldyzkan once again applied to the bank "Bai-Tushum" for a loan in the amount of 100,000 som (KGS) to buy livestock, with the goal of increasing her income from raising livestock. Proceeds from the loan will help Zhyldyzkan to improve her family's material welfare.
