Rosa is a member of the Salvadorean Mothers communal bank. She is 26-years-old, single, and does not have any children. She recently graduated from a university where she studied nursing. She started working in a private laboratory part time but left after a year to work in a hospital because she wanted to work in an area of medicine that could help her obtain the official title of nurse.
Due to the outbreak of H1N1 virus (swine flu), her hospital has required more uniforms for nurses and more face-covers. Rosa is able to make face-covers and uniforms and has been selling them to the hospital where she works.
Rosa needs a loan of 1200 soles for the purchase of more fabric material to make more nursing uniforms. Her dream is to keep selling uniforms and save enough money to get her doctorate degree in emergency disaster relief.
