A loan helped a member to maintain and fertilize her farm plot to thus provide a product adapted to her customers' needs.


Nuevo Samugari Group's story

Dina, only 33 years old, has an eight-year-old son for whom she gets ahead along with her husband.

More than six years ago, she started the production of cacao and coffee. Her goal is to continue extending her agricultural land in order to have a greater opportunity to continue harvesting.

It is because of this that she is requesting her loan to maintain and fertilize her agricultural plot to thus provide an adequate product adapted to her customers’ needs.

As a second income, she works in other support plots.

She wants to continue saving to educate her son who is a student.

Dina considers herself a perseverant and hard-working person. Currently, she belongs to the communal bank, “Nuevo Samugari,” made up of eight members. It is pursuing its 13th cycle. Each member is very committed and wants to continue improving.

In this group: Dina Irma, Isaac, Nery, Eliza, Marina, Mesiancina, Erika, Teofilo
