A loan helped to buy construction material.


Beatriz's story

Born in the city of Maputo, Beatriz is 33 years old and is a single mother of two children, both of whom are minors and one of whom goes to primary school. Their mother is responsible for them. She is a teacher who works in the “Escola Primaria Completa.”

She lives with her family in a rental house. Needing to finish the work on her home, she approached Hluvuku to ask for her third loan with the aim to get construction material such as doors, window frames, cement, and sand, to finish the work.

She is a repeat borrower. With her previous loans she invested in the acquisition of construction materials to construct her building. In the future, she plans to finish the building and ensure the well-being of her family.
