Las Poderosas Group's story
Gloria has two children but does not have anyone who depends on her financially. Gloria works selling artisanal candies. She learned this job due to a lack of employment, and it allows her to generate income to cover her financial responsibilities.
However, she wishes to strengthen her business, which is why she is applying for a loan to buy raw materials, cotton bags, and sweets. With this investment, she hopes to have better income. Gloria, along with Magdalena and Fatima, make up the lending group "Las poderosas" ["The Powerful Women"], and they are all people working towards the same end of continuing onward.
In this group: Magdalena Yessenia, Fatima Beatriz, Gloria Abelina
