Mirna has worked selling vegetables and cashew seeds for six years. She sells the vegetables from 6:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., and then she sells the cashew seeds.

Mirna requests the loan to invest in the purchase of vegetables such chili, tomato, onion, cucumber, etc., to stock her business. Thus she will be able to meet the needs of her customers and to generate more profits.

Mirna dreams of being able to strengthen her business and to make it grow, to generate more income. This will permit her to have a better quality of life and family stability.
