A loan of $1,800 helps to buy seedlings and to hire day laborers and agricultural machinery.
Maria Auxiliadora's story
María got her first loan last year. She feels supported by the lenders, which is very encouraging to her. Being separated from her husband has made things hard, but she keeps on fighting to rebuild her life alongside her children.
María wants another loan. This time she's going to focus on her cacao crop.
This loan will help her buy cacao seedlings. She's also going to hire day laborers to level the land to plow it for planting.
Her next step will be to modernize the crop with an irrigation system so she can be more efficient in caring for her crop.
All this effort will be reflected in the well-being of her children, so they have access to education, health, and good nutrition.
