Somporn's story

Somporn spent a decade successfully selling produce in a province near Bangkok, building a stable livelihood for herself and her family. However, when her husband became disabled, they made the difficult decision to return to their village, where she turned to field work to make ends meet. While this work has provided for her family, it lacks the stability she once had and requires strenuous labor.

Hammock weaving has presented itself as an ideal opportunity for Somporn to regain financial stability and work in a safer, more sustainable environment. With a spacious house, she already has the perfect setup for a dedicated weaving area, making the transition into full-time weaving easier and more practical. This loan will allow her to purchase the supplies needed to establish herself as a weaver, enabling her to fully commit to this new path.

Somporn is eager to begin this next chapter, where she can support her family from the comfort of her home. Through artisan weaving, she hopes to achieve a stable income once again and provide a brighter future for her loved ones. With her past experience in business and a determination to succeed, Somporn is ready to make hammock weaving her primary livelihood.
