A loan helped to buy clothes for both sexes and for different ages.


Marlene Elizabeth's story

Marlene is 50 years old and single. She has an adult daughter who is independent. Marlene has been selling clothes for 20 years. She works Monday through Saturday without a set schedule. Marlene goes out to sell her products by going house to house in the surrounding neighborhoods.

She is requesting a loan to buy clothes for both sexes and for different ages. This will increase the inventory of her business so that she can better serve her customers. Marlene hopes that her purchases will help strengthen her inventory and generate more income.

Her dreams are to grow her business even more and to have a better quality of life for her family.
