Fernanda is 20 years of age, is a single mother, and has a two and a half year old daughter. She lives with her daughter and her parents in a small house north of the city in a humble suburb. Here she has dedicated herself to raising and selling small animals in order to earn an income to support her young daughter's needs.
In addition to selling the animals Fernanda has also been selling them already prepared, thus earning an extra income.
Fernanda is requesting a loan in order to buy chickens, guinea pigs, rabbits, fattening feed for the animals and vitamins in order to continue expanding her business.
