Melida Margoth's story
Melida is 20 years old. She is an enthusiastic young woman with the will to get ahead. She is single, has completed high school, and lives with her parents.
Because she was unable to continue with her studies, she decided to start raising pigs. In addition to that business, she also slaughters them to sell by the pound.
Melida is requesting a loan to expand her pigsty and increase the number of pigs in order to generate more income. Her next step will be to buy a bigger freezer to keep the meat she sells properly refrigerated.
Melida wants to be successful in her business so she can buy a car, which will help the business.
