A loan helped to buy two breeding goats, vitamins, and concentrated feed.


Licsy Johana's story

Licsy is single. She lives with her child, age 3 years. Also her grandmother lives with them. She states that she does not have relatives living abroad. Licsy's business is raising goats. She has done this for five years, working with her grandmother.

Licsy requests a loan to improve the inventory of her business. She will use the borrowed funds to buy two breeding goats, vitamins, and concentrated feed to increase the inventory of her farm with animals with better genetics. She hopes that her sales and profits will grow. The risk of the investment is that the goats could become sick and die, which would be a loss.

Her aspirations are to diversify and modernize her business, have economic stability, and share a decent life with her family.
