Short-term loan sought for Bunso Vangie

SEEKING $1260 short term loan for small farming business in Malasqui, Philippines.

Shown here is an estimate and spreadsheet on costs for a loan we are seeking for Bunso Vangie. This loan is needed only for 9 months. Its a loan of 51K PHP (US$1260) to prepare the present corn field for an ampalaya crop. Pictured at the top here to the left is a picture of an ampalaya vine. As you can see its a raised trellis that holds the vine. It's very expensive to prepare the field and it's 2.5 hectacre so it's very large.

The cool thing about all this is that after you loan this family the money for this small business, you get your money back and the family is left with half of their entire budgetary needs for 2008. So it's a great help for Bunso Vangie and her large extended family which numbers over 30 people.

Please contact me if there is any questions. You can email me at larriji@gmail.com. We need to get this crop in before the end of Feburary. So please hurry! Many thanks! God bless, L

She is the great aunt of Vangie, WSU Director of Malasqui chapter. Lola Veronica is now in the hospital in Pangasinan with throat cancer. She is struggling a great deal suffering a great deal and the doctors give her a 50-50 chance to live. We are trying to raise 12K(about $250US) peso to pay for a throat operation that might save her.

All WSU money is depleted at this time. So anybody out there that has some extra money please message me. You can paypal direct to our WSU bank account in the Philippines. email address: wsu_phi@yahoo.com Please put in comments Lola Veronica Fund. Our 501(c)(3) registration is still in progress. So this is not a tax deductible donation. But none the less its a worthy and desperately needed donation. Thank you for all the positive thoughts and words of support.
