A loan helped a member to buy raw materials to make food and various flavors of ice cream.


Kokuere Poty Group's story

The Kokuere Poty group is in its 7th cycle of the Woman's Committee Program. They set a goal of growing, not only financially but as people, so they can help their families.

One of them is Magdalena, who sells food and ice cream. Her business is humble, but she seeks a way to improve it little by little. That is why she is working very hard to achieve this. She is an enterprising person who, with much sacrifice, is seeking a way to help her family.

She is asking for a loan to buy raw materials to make food and various flavors of ice cream. This way, she can continue with her sales, as she has been been doing.
