Her method of growing is organic, which makes her product more sought after in the market. Lesli wants to increase the extension of her crop to expand her production.

This loan will help her buy corn seeds and organic, agricultural supplies in order to plant a larger quantity. Her objective is to obtain greater profitability to pay for her son's education, and to help her mother with a business she started recently. In this way Lesli will be looking after the wellbeing of all.
