Dúo San Valentín Group's story

Dúo San Valentín, thanks to God, the leader continues being Doña Irma, originally from the municipality of Tecpan. She is 39 years old and is raising eight minor children. She works happily, making typical weavings by hand, and selling tortillas. These activities have permitted her to get ahead in life, managing to support her large family.

With the loans that Kiva has given her, she has managed to grow, increasing her desire to work. Now she needs to invest in materials to continue making her weavings.

In this group: Irma Leticia, Hilda
