Ana Lisseth
A loan of $1,000 helps to purchase fertilizers and compost for the maintenance of the corn crop, and pay laborers for the preparation of the land.
Ana Lisseth's story
Ana lives with her partner and their three-year-old son, and together they provide for their child's needs. Ana has been cultivating corn for four years, starting when she began her family and needed to contribute to household expenses. She runs the business Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Ana is applying for a loan to purchase fertilizer and other supplies for maintaining her corn crop. She will also use the funds to pay workers to prepare the land. This will be very helpful because once the land is prepared, she can plant and properly care for her crops to ensure a good harvest and generate sufficient profits to improve her family's living conditions.
Ana's dream is to be able to continue her corn farming work and provide for her son.
