A loan helped to buy agricultural supplies and pay for labor to grow basic grains with her husband.


Margarita's story

Margarita is 73 years old and studied until the 2nd grade. She lives with her husband and one of her daughters, and the rest of her children emigrated to another country in search of opportunities.

Margarita has a business selling tortillas, which she sells in her community every day. In addition she works in agriculture with her husband, and this is how they manage to get ahead.

She needs the loan to buy agricultural supplies and pay for labor to grow basic grains with her husband.

She dreams of improving her house in the future and continue growing corn and have large crops.

Translated from Spanish by Kiva volunteer Liliana S.
