COMUS, Usulutan

 

Angel María Viuda de Valle (right) and Morena Patricia de León Hernandez (left), inside the chicken coup built with the support of micro-credits provided by COMUS, with support from SCIAF. The micro-credits are provided annually, and used to purchase material, chicks, and feed. Maria and Patricia rear the chickens and sell them locally, generating a profit of around US$450 every 3-4 months. The income helps them gain economic independence, and provide for their families.
