Dominga is 52 years-old, married and lives with her husband and two children. She wants the loan to purchase fertilizer and hire labor for a coffee plantation they want to start. She wants to provide proper maintenance to the crop so that it will produce more and she will have higher earnings.
She hopes to give her family a better quality of life and greater economic stability in the future. As well, she wants to be able to continue growing as a person and a producer. This is the first loan she has received from FUDECOSUR. She had never applied for other loans previously from state banks, however FUDECOSUR made this loan to her with greater ease and at a much lower interest rate.
