Maira Maria's story

Maira is 44 years old and enjoys a friendly personality and good character. She lives in a relative's house, is a single mother, and has a 17-year-old child who is about to finish secondary school.

Maira has been working growing plantains as an alternative for income to sustain her household. She asks for this loan to purchase plantain pups, agricultural supplies, and agricultural tools. In this way, she will boost her yield and, so, get more income to pay for her household's sustenance and her child's education.

Maira has plans to continue boosting her work and aspires to be able to have future loans to purchase pump strayers and an irrigation system to have a modernized and productive crop. In this way, this noble mother aspires to get ahead with her child.
