Domitila's story

Domitila is a hard-working, 47-year-old woman. She lives with her spouse and their four children in the town of Chala which is located in Arequipa. She is dedicated to selling food in her place of business which she managed to open with a lot of effort as she is always looking to give the best of herself to keep her customers satisfied. She is requesting the microloan to buy tables and chairs thus improving her business and expanding her sales volume. Domitila hopes to improve her home in the future and to provide a good education to her children so they can become professionals. Additionally she appears in a mask since the Peruvian Government has decreed its required use to stop the spread of COVID 19.
