A loan helped to buy farming supplies and pay for labor to prepare the land to plant corn.


Daisy Del Carmen's story

Daisy is married and has a young son. She lives only with her son since her husband has to live elsewhere for work reasons. Her parents had taught her how to farm the land since she was an adolescent, since they did this as a source of income to support the family. Today, she does this with the help of workers.

With the support of the loan she will be able to buy farming supplies and pay for labor to prepare the land which will be used to plant corn. In this way she will be able to have better harvests and her chances of generating a greater income with increase. She expects to have the necessary income to repay the debt and to contribute with the family expenses.

Her dreams are to continue working, to have a good credit record, and offer her family a more dignified way of life.
