Erkeaiym's story

This wonderful woman, Erkeaiym, is 31 years old, married, and raising 3 children. She has a higher eduction. By nature she is a kind and responsive woman. As the main source of income for her family she has been working with village farming for many years. Thanks to her hard work and the help of her husband on the farm, her farm today has 4 cows and 24 sheep. She has all the conditions required on her property to keep livestock.

The region where Erkeaiym lives is wonderfully suited for raising livestock. Every summer she sends the livestock out to green pastures. In order to further develop her farm she is asking for support from Kiva in the amount of 100,000 som (KGS) to buy a dairy cattle with the goal of increasing her sales of organic milk. This, it goes without saying, will raise the productivity of their am and in this way, their income. Erkeaiym hopes to get a desired result and build a better life for her family.
