Ms. Teresa H. C. is a single mother with one daughter. Our client works in the agricultural sector, growing palm hearts, oranges and other minor crops as well. She works with and takes care of her elderly mother. She is a responsible and hardworking person and an extremely dedicated daughter and mother. She is a single mother because the father of her child left her over a year ago. This is why she started looking for ways to support her child. She has been able to do this with the help of her mother, who lent her the land where she now grows her crops.
This is the first time our client has received a loan from our organization. With it, she will buy seeds for citrus plants. This will allow her to increase her income in the near future and thus improve her quality of life.
