Meerim's story

The sweet Meerim sends greetings from Kyrgyzstan. She is thirty-three years old and married, and she is raising three children. By character she is a kind, friendly, and responsible woman. She has higher education. For many years she and her husband have been raising livestock. Today they have an impressive farm consisting of 7 cows. They strive to invest their savings into improving their living conditions. With this goal Meerim has turned to the bank Bai Tushum for a loan of 200,000 Kyrgyzstan Soms in order to buy building materials for a partial renovation of their home. The loan will help improve their family's living conditions and give their children a comfortable life.
