A loan helped to provide care to the beans.


Maria Isabel's story

María Isabel is 46 years old, single, and lives with her daughter. She wants the loan to purchase supplies, seeds, and supplies to plant beans and care for those that already have a harvest. She hopes that this investment will offer her family a better quality of life, greater financial stability, and to be able to continue growing as a person and a micro-entrepreneur.

This is the first loan she has gotten from FUDECOSUR. She has not had previous loans from state banks, but FUDECOSUR has offered her the loan with better terms and a much lower interest rate.

This loan is special because:

It reaches rural borrowers that are considered too risky for traditional banks.
