A loan helped to buy natural medicine.


Luisa's story

Luisa is 71 years old and lives with her spouse. She has children, but they live in their own homes. She makes her home in the community of San Lorenzo, a valley in southern Honduras.

She has her own home and has worked for many years selling natural medicine. In her business, she sells everything related to natural medicine, and also sells dried sardines and honey.

She is seeking this loan to be able to buy natural medicine, honey, and sardines to stock her business since she has so much demand. With the support of this loan, she will stock her business more and in this way improve her income. She is very happy to keep working with Prisma and Kiva. Her dream is to improve her business and her house.

Translated from Spanish by Kiva volunteer Jill Capotosto.


This loan is special because:

It provides credit to some of the most isolated communities in Honduras.
