A loan helped a member to buy a microfranchise for cleaning products.


Virgen De Fatima Group's story

The group is called Virgen de Fatima and it is in its second loan cycle of the women’s committee program, in which all of them work and help each other out to succeed.

Andrea Teresa is one of the members of this committee. She is a hardworking person who fights to provide her loved ones with everything that she couldn’t have and avoid them hardships.

She works making and selling cleaning products, something to which she gained access through the microfranchises that the foundation offers as a business idea for the ladies in this committee.

She is a hardworking person who despite the daily difficulties does not give up and looks for a way to succeed and get ahead.

She is requesting this loan to buy a microfranchise for cleaning products, and thus continue with her work and comply with her customers.
