Adding to basket
Pensilvania, who is 32 years old, is a hardworking woman. She lives in the company of her husband Marcial and their two children in the house they own.
Ever since she was young, Pensilvania has lived in the country, where she learned to farm and raise animals. That's why when she started her family, she decided to turn this activity into a source of income for her household. Currently, they farm different agricultural crops on their own fields, like corn, potatoes, and other vegetables. But as agriculture doesn't provide daily earnings, she also began to raise animals like chickens, sheep, pigs, and cows.
Now Pensilvania would like to expand her livestock, as she has increased clientele whom she doesn't want to disappoint. She hopes that she will soon achieve her objective and improve her business.
This is her second loan with Kiva, and she is grateful for the support granted. In addition, she promises to be punctual with her loan payments. Pensilvania will invest the 1,500 soles [PEN] in the purchase of a milk cow as well as pelleted feed to nourish her animals.
