Frederic's story
Frederic is a 47-year-old father. He is married and the couple have seven children to look after. He lives in a remote village in their own house. He has been raising cattle for about ten years. His wife helps him. He wants to increase the number of cattle he raises, so he decides to obtain a loan. So he joined Vahatra. With the funds loaned, he will buy two oxen to fatten up. He will feed them himself. He will resell his herds at the right time to local resellers. He will deposit his profits in savings and hopes to be financially independent in the future. He is counting heavily on the support of lenders.
