Adding to basket
The solidarity group CINCO MUJERES is made up of five enterprising and hard-working women who ask ADIM for the fourth time for a loan for their businesses. It is coordinated by Mireya, a woman who struggles each day to improve her family's living conditions. She is a married woman and the mother of two children who are her greatest motivation to improve herself. They are 19 and 17 years old. Her business is the sale of spices (cinnamon, pepper, cloves, annatto, etc.). She began this business with her own savings, the loan that she requests is to purchase cinnamon, cloves, and annatto to stock her business even more. With the previous loans, she has been able to get more income. The rest of the members are Petrona, 51 years old, who sells cinnamon, pastries, pepper and cotton, María is 45 years old and has a lot of experience in her business which is selling cinnamon, pepper and cloves, Elsa, 32 years old, is very hard-working and sells fruits (watermelon, melon, papaya, and tomatoes), and Juana who is a hard-working woman, 72 years old, who works making and selling tortillas, curd and pork derivatives such as frito, head, blood sausage, etc.).
In this group: Mireya Del Carmen, Juana Maria, Elsa Catalina, Maria Auxiliadora, Petrona Del Carmen
