Dora lives with her two children, ages 15, and 12 years, who are her dependents. She does not have relatives living abroad.
Dora has worked selling "pupusas" for more than three years. She learned thanks to a friend who taught her, and then it has become a means of family subsistence. Dora sells "pupusas" every day in the afternoon. Due to the time she has been in the business, she is known in the area and has much customer demand.
Dora requests a loan to be able to invest in supplies to sell "pupusas", such as corn, cheese, oil, etc. This will permit her to stock her inventory and generate more profits, to improve her family's living conditions.
Dora's dream is to be able to make her business grow and to hire people to help her to make and sell "pupusas".
