Kelin, 24, has a basic education earned in her town. She is in a relationship and her partner works in agriculture. She has no dependent children.
Kelin makes and sells mats and works at home. She has over five years' experience and learned the trade from her family. She has to travel 30 minutes to buy the tule she uses as a raw material.
She will use the loan to buy more tule to stock necessary raw materials to increase mat production so she can earn more profit.
Kelin's priority goal is to buy a house and give her children a stable economy.
