Mrs. Eloina is an older person. She lives with her partner in a rural area in a rustic adobe house. She barely has basic services with a few restrictions in the house. They only studied through elementary, being their main source of income agriculture and selling their products. This is how they generate income to support their three children and pay for their studies. They primarily grow: potatoes, lima beans, peas, and other crops in small quantity which they use for their own consumption. Eloina needs to ask for a loan which serves her as capital to buy manure and seeds. This way, she will continue her farming activities and will be able to generate greater income and continue supporting their children, thus improving their quality of life.
