Epifania's story

Epifania is 32 years old and currently lives with her fiancé and 3 school-age children. They reside in the majestic Ayacuchana jungle, specifically in a place called "Quimbiri," where they have their own home.
Although she was raised in a house made of wattle and daub, life has still given her opportunity to advance. For 10 years she has worked in a retail store selling fast food, sweets, cookies, soft drinks, etc. She generally works alone and feels satisfied with her work. It has already given her enough money to pay for household necessities. In the future, she hopes to build a house of noble material, with the goal of improving her children's standard of living.
This is her third loan from Microfinanzas Prisma. She assures us that the loans have brought her many benefits. She is committed to making her payments on time, and she feels satisfied and content to be a member of her communal bank.
With this loan, she plans to purchase more products for work; therefore, she will have a greater variety of products to offer to her more-demanding customers.
