A loan helped to buy food and medicine for the chickens.


Jennifer Leticia's story

Jennifer Leticia and her family live in El Pollo in canton Portoviejo, a place surrounded by a lot of vegetation, where the majority of people work in agriculture to sell their products.
She is a hardworking woman who looks for a way to earn her resources and with them help her husband to get ahead. She works raising chickens; she buys these animals when they are small and raises them until they have an adequate weight to sell. She does business in a table outside her house, where she sells the chickens by the pound or whole to her neighbors and customers that visit from nearby places. She also sells to merchants who come to buy to take to other cities.
She has managed to continue with her business thanks to the help of the credits she has been granted. This loan is to buy food and medicine for the chickens.
