A loan helped to buy an overlock sewing machine and raw materials.


Adriana Elizabeth's story

Adriana is 24 years old. She is a single mother of three year old Santiago, who spends his time with her. She lives with her aunt and uncle and her little son.

Necessity caused her to undertake her own business five years ago. She works making and repairing clothing. After having worked as an employee, she opted for independent work which means she can work at home in comfort and tranquility.

Adriana would like to have economic support in order to continue with her sewing workshop. The money she receives will be used to buy an overlock sewing machine and raw materials. This will ensure she can continue with her work activity.
