Sandra Lucia's story
Sandra, age 39, is a woman of the countryside who seeks a better future with her family. She is in a common law marriage. Her husband works in construction. She has four school-age children who all attend school in the San Isidro sector. Sandra works on a farm where they let her farm and raise animals.
She wants to grow onions and requests a loan to buy agricultural supplies such as mulch, fertilizers, and disinfectants. Her objective for the future is to increase capital to grow potatoes, and in that way, to continue improving economically through agriculture.
As a mother, she wants the best for her children, and so she strives to be able to give them the education that will allow them to become professionals.
