A loan helped a member to buy a variety of clothes and shoes to sell.


Mujeres San Jorge Group's story

All of the members of this fairly large committee want to succeed and get ahead. They know that they must work as a team in order to accomplish all of their goals and objectives.

Sra. Iluminada is one of the members who sells clothes and shoes throughout her area. She is a mother of two children who are in school. Her husband works in construction. Iluminada and her husband help one another so that they can provide a decent future for their children and avoid hardships.

She is requesting a loan to buy a variety of clothes and shoes so that she can continue her work as before. Iluminada and the other members are also participating in the poverty elimination program with great enthusiasm so that they can succeed.
