Confiando En Dios Group's story

The "Confiando en Dios" ("Trusting in God") group is made up of three individuals who are neighbors in the Alto Verde neighborhood in the city of San Lorenzo. They have come together as a group to request a loan. Details of their different activities are as follows:

Ms. Asuncion Agustina F. H. is 38 years old and lives in a common-law marriage with Mr. Sebastian Morales. They have three children and they do not own their own house, so they rent their living space. Ms. Asuncion makes and sells snacks like sliced banana with chismol (salsa), pastries, tacos, etc. She is requesting a loan to buy ingredients to make her snacks. Her greatest dream is to own her own house.

Mr. Carlos Agusto M. H. is 31 years old, single, and lives with his parents. For the last six years, he has worked milling corn flour. He has a motorized mill and he will use this loan to buy spare parts for his mill.

Ms. Santos Francisca F. H. is 33 years old and lives with her common-law husband, Mr. Juan Manuel Cruz. They have two children. Santos Francisca sells sodas, charamuscas (plastic bags of frozen juice or soda), churros, etc. She will use this loan to buy more sodas, churros, and materials to make charamuscas.

In this group: Asuncion Agustina, Carlos Agusto, Santos Francisca
