Gloria Esperanza's story

Gloria Esperanza is 26 years old, in a common-law relationship with her husband, and lives in the town of Gracias, which is in the Department of Lempira. She previously worked in agriculture. Two years ago, Gloria Esperanza decided to start her own business of selling secondhand clothes for women, men, and children such as trousers, shirts, blouses, skirts, and other garments. She sells her merchandise at a shop in her community.

Gloria Esperanza is requesting a loan from ODEF in the amount of 35,000 HNL because she wants to restock her business. She will buy more clothes. With this investment, she hopes to offer more products in order to increase her sales. Her goal is to improve the living conditions for herself and her family.
