A loan helped to buy fertilizers, manure, and seeds to plant corn and beans.


María Adriana's story

Maria is 52 years old. She did not have the opportunity to go to school due to a lack of economic resources. She is married and her husband is a farmer. She has four adult children.

Maria has made a living growing corn and beans for 15 years, and she learned the trade from her husband. She works in the mornings. Previously, she only took care of the household chores.

Maria needs a loan to buy fertilizers, manure, and seeds to plant corn and beans.

Maria dreams of increasing her income and improving her family's quality of life.
