A loan helped to buy livestock (a pair of oxen), which will make growing potatoes easier and, thus, improve the well-being of her home.


Nilda's story

Nilda is 21 years old and has two small children.

With her husband's help, she provides for her children by working in agriculture. With a great deal of effort, she managed to acquire her own house and land to farm.

Nilda and her husband work very hard growing potatoes, peas, and corn, and they have high aspirations to give their children a good future.

They live in a remote area.

Currently, Nilda is requesting a loan to buy livestock (a pair of oxen), which will make her agricultural work—growing potatoes—easier. This will in turn contribute to the food sovereignty of the region and the well-being of her home.
