Sharifa lives with her husband and two children in a quiet village in northeastern Afghanistan. Although her husband has a job as a driver, his income barely covers the family’s needs for food and the children’s education, which is why Sharifa decided to undertake a money-making venture of her own.
Recognizing that her experience growing up on a farm offered her the best chance of success, Sharifa turned to FINCA for access to a $150 loan to purchase a calf. Sharifa carefully raised the calf and sold it for a good price. With her profits, she purchased a pregnant cow and now operates a thriving milk operation in her community, earning enough to ensure she can feed and educate her children.
