Virgen Del Carmen De Huachancay Group's story

The members belong to Virgen del Carmen de Huachancay Communal Bank, located in the Anta district of the province of Anta and department of Cusco.

The member, Jesusa, is 77 years old and single. She works in her agriculture business. She has a plot of land where she grows potatoes, corn, and carrots. She works from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m. She has been in this business for several years now and it's going very well for her. Her dream is to expand her agriculture business.

The member's requesting the loan to buy seeds and fertilizer.

The member who's attached to the group photo had permission to have his photo taken after the meeting because of work reasons. The other members earn a living in a ranching business, an agriculture business, a grocery store business, and an animal sales business.

The member's grateful to those who are part of her dream through this loan and she promises to make her payments punctually.
