Ana Gabriela's story

Ana is a 25 year old youth who is known to be serious and hard-working. She lives with her parents. In order to obtain economic resources to pay for the needs of her humble household she earns her living selling candy and caramels itinerantly and taking care of her father's small shop selling snack food at the city bus terminal. She takes advantage of this to get on the buses and sell her products to obtain greater sales. So her and her parents mutually help each other to get ahead. Ana makes the effort and works hard so she can save money to educate herself.

Ana wants to continue with her work so she is requesting support to buy merchandise like candy, water, soft drinks, juice, prepared rice, cookies and canned goods amongst others. She also wants to open a store at her parent's house as she has noted that there is not much competition in the area. In this manner she hopes to improve her lifestyle.
