A loan helped to buy the needed supplies to grow potatoes.


Isabelle's story

Isabelle is 25, married and has two children. Her husband is a builder and they have their own house. She looks after the home and is also a farmer. She has been growing potatoes for five years and has managed to expand her land. From her last loan, she was able to buy building materials.

She is now taking another loan from Vahatra. She will buy potato seeds, manure and also pay for workers during the harvest. She expects to have a good income and we be able to restore her house.
