A loan helped to buy farming inputs for her crops.


Johanna Estefania's story

Johanna is a 30-year-old single mother and she lives with her son in a borrowed house in the Los Andes parish in the Carchi province.

Johanna is a persistent woman and she made an effort to study in order to have better job opportunities, and in this way being able to provide a better quality of life for her little one.

Johanna's main source of income is farming. She wants to improve pea production and requests a loan for 600 dollars. This will allow her to buy the farming inputs she requires to fumigate and keep her pea crop in good condition.

In this way, Johanna will complete her studies and achieve her goal of becoming a professional.
