Leela
Dream: To put her hard-earned money in agriculture without the burden of debt
Leela lives with her big family and works as an artisan as the main earning member, forced to take up work when the men of the family faced unemployment.It is commonpractice to take a loan from a money lender at any rate of interest when needed. What happened with her family was no different and when they were unable to repay a loan of ₹ 15,000, they were pushing Rs 1500 from her income for years toward nullifying the debt.
She received a loan from Dreams Foundation and now she can use her hard earned money for agriculture and other productive activities. Leela is happy to repay this from her income, rather than interest and she is thankful to Dreams Foundation!
