A loan helped a member to buy cookies, sugar, corn and seasonal fruits.


Cruz Blanca Group's story

Maria is very respected for being hardworking and enterprising and motivates her groupmates to always struggle each day to get the business ahead and help at home with their children's education. For this reason, she continues as the leader of the group. She is very healthy and, with the unconditional support of her children, she is very happy.

The end-of-the-year holidays approach and she wants to purchase cookies, angelitos, sugar, corn, coffee, and some fruit such as grapes and apples to sell. The money she has is not enough, so she needs another loan to purchase what she lacks. Her groupmates join with her, they sell firewood to order, traditional clothing, cheese, pork, and tortillas.

Maria likes to to work a lot and the previous loan was of great help to her and her business.

In this group: Magdalena, Maria Alicia, Maria, Maria Cristina, Maria Santos, Maria Santos, Maria Rosa, Zoila Isabel
