Kumushkan's story

The lovely Kumushkan sends greetings from the village of Barskoon, which lies in the south of Issyk-Kul. In order to improve her living conditions, she has turned to Bai Tushum Bank for a loan of 250,000 som (KGS), to buy building materials to build a house.

Kumushkan is a 49-year-old married mother of three lovely children. She received a secondary education, and is hardworking and cheerful by nature. She has been raising livestock since 1995, as her main contribution to the family income. Her farm presently consists of six cows, five horses, and 40 sheep.

This loan will help improve the living conditions of Kumushkan's family and make a comfortable life for her children.
