Claude's story
Claude is a 27-year-old father. He is married and the couple has two dependent children. He lives in a rural village in their own house. He has been raising dairy cows and growing potatoes for eight years.
He decided to take out a loan from Vahatra to expand his business and increase his income. He is seeking financial support to buy pigs and a cow, along with feed, seeds, and fertilizer to grow potatoes. He will sell his products at the town market.
He used his earnings and savings from his last loan to buy a dairy cow. He will save the profits from this loan to buy a plot of arable land in the near future.
