Cruz is a humble woman who is widowed and has a six-year-old child. As a determined mother, she must work very hard to meet the needs of her family. Her main expense is paying the rent of the house where she lives. Cruz began working in agriculture 10 years ago and over time her work has included raising small animals. This type of work has been very helpful with covering her household expenses. Her greatest joy is when she obtains a good harvest and is able to reap the benefits.
Cruz is motivated to continue her agricultural work. She is seeking a loan to buy farming supplies and to hire workers to help with cultivating peas. The income she earns will be a great help with finishing the construction of a house so that she can avoid paying rent, which will also improve her family’s standard of living.
