ORETHA: E780-BOR

January 2024: Oretha is a thirty-nine-year-old single mother of five children.  She provides for her family through subsistence farming.  Oretha is a high school graduate and sometimes volunteers in her children’s school.  She counts it a blessing to be able to read, write, and do math.  Oretha is a subsistence farmer and sells her produce in the local market.  Many market women are unable to do basic math and thus are exploited and lose a lot of their profit.  Oretha asked for (and was granted) a farming supplies package to expand her farming enterprise.
