Ramón, age 44, is in a common law relationship. He is the father of a son and a merchant. Ramón works in the fields and also has begun to raise chickens to strengthen his income. Of course he aspires to continually improve his quality of life.
Ramón has come for a Kiva loan from MiCrédito to buy chickens, and wood, mesh, and nails to expand the enclosure where the animals are kept so that they can develop better. His goal is to acquire a larger loan to grow plantains, cabbage, and lettuce.
