Thank you for supporting us, so we can support people like Simon from Uganda. Your purchase helped fund a microloan that helps to buy manure and to improve his banana plantation.
Simon is 36 years old and he is from Kinoni in Kiruhura district. He is married and has one child who has not yet started schooling.
Simon is a church lay leader and a farmer who practices banana growing. He earns a monthly salary from banana sales and daily income from working as a motorcycle-for-hire. Simon practices farming jointly with his wife for more productivity.
Simon has been facing a challenge of poor banana yields due to soil infertility. This has forced him to seek financial support to buy manure for his banana plantation. This will increase his banana harvests, enabling more sales and food security for his family. This loan is important because it helps increase the productivity and income of rural farmers in Uganda.
