Blanca, age 21, only went to school through the sixth grade. She is in a relationship, and she has a two year old child. Her life partner devotes himself to agriculture and raising pigs and livestock.
Blanca raises pigs to butcher and sell. She has been engaged in this line of work since she got married. She also helps her mother sell tamales. Additionally, she has a cow that she milks, and she sells products derived from the milk.
She needs this loan to buy more pigs to raise and butcher in order to sell the meat and to get earnings.
The previous loan was a big help because she was able to buy the cows. She trusts that she will be supported with this new loan.
She dream of having good health in order to continue working and that her little son has everything he needs.
