A loan helped to buy suckling pigs, whey, and vitamins and invest in merchandise.


Milena Jhamilek's story

Milena is 25 years old. She lives with her mum and sister in a small, modest house in the community of Lagarto.
She has worked rearing suckling pigs for the past six years with her mum.
She is dedicated and determined, which has led to push forward an extra business: they have created a small shop in one of their rooms. These two sources of income cover all her needs.
Milena wants to grow her enterprises, so she is asking for a loan to buy, baby suckling pigs, bagasse, whey, vitamins, and invest in merchandise to stock her shop. She hopes to slowly reach her goals.
