A loan of $1,975 helps to grow freshwater fish to sell.
Thu's story
Thu is a 63-year-old woman who's been married many years. All her children are grown, leaving her and her husband to manage their household on their own. As members of an ethnic minority, the couple resides in the mountainous region of Cẩm Thủy district.
For over three decades, Thu and her husband have been small-scale farming and raising livestock. However, their income is unstable and barely sufficient to cover their basic needs. Despite these challenges, they remain determined to improve their livelihood and secure a better future.
To enhance their income, the couple plans to invest in their small family fishpond by purchasing additional fish fingerlings and planting grass to support fish farming. Thu is seeking her second loan from Thanh Hóa MFI to fund this plan. They expect to harvest the fish in one to two years, which would help them generate additional income and improve their living conditions.
