La Curvita Group's story

Rosa Irene (seen in the grey GAP t-shirt and beige shorts) is the owner of a food stall in the neighborhood of La Curva in Managua. She is 40 years old, and has been with Pro Mujer for 5 years. She is the treasurer of her communal bank, named "La Curvita," with Pro Mujer in Nicaragua. She is a hardworking woman who loves to cook. Her dream is to have a restaurant.

For now, she must work even harder. To do this, she needs a loan, which she plans to spend on bananas, rice, meats. This way, she can make her soups and offer her customers a variety of Nicaraguan dishes.

Help Rosa to accomplish her dreams! She needs financial support in this time of crisis that is affecting the whole country.
