The "Agora Vai I" group consists of friends; they know each other from the neighborhood where they live, Santo André in São Paulo. The group has been a client of Banco do Povo Crédito Solidário (BPCS, People's Bank - Credit in Solidarity) for a year and this is their third loan with the bank. Jaqueline works with music, Rafael makes artisanal sandals, Monalisa works with school transport, Odete is a seamstress, and Mariana is an artisan.
Silvana is a young, pretty, and hardworking person. She has a small workshop in her home and makes a variety of beautiful handicrafts. She is married and has three small children. Her children are studying and her husband helps with her business. She loves what she does, and through her work she helps to support her household. Silvana needs the loan to buy fabric, glue, wood, paint, and essences to make her products for end-of-the-year requests.
Silvana dreams of opening a large workshop in order to attend to more people. She also dreams of traveling to Disney World with her family. The group is very happy with the support of the investors and would like to thank them for their trust in and dedication to people who need so much.
In this group: Jaqueline, Mariana, Monalisa, Odete, Rafael, Silvana
