The members of the community bank V.R.C Avanza all work in agriculture in the district of Aguas Frías. They have practically been raised in these fields. The majority of them grow crops or raise livestock.
Amelia is a farmer, and she grows corn. She will use the loan in order to purchase fertilizer and compost. With the help of the loan she will be able to purchase these supplies at wholes and obtain a discount. She makes her purchases in Mocache and Ventanas every week.
Her dream is to continue working in agriculture and grow her business each day. Her challenge is to finish her studies. She likes to spend her free time with her children.
