Virginia Esperanza and her family live in the city of Portoviejo, which was affected by an earthquake on April 16, 2016. This city is rich in its production of vegetables, legumes, and tropical fruits for domestic consumption.
Virginia Esperanza has a disability that makes it difficult for her to walk, so she relies on the help of crutches. Her granddaughter assists her with selling a variety of beverages such as water, soft drinks, and electrolyte drinks. She also sells ice cream with fruits and milk, chocolates, caramels, and other snacks. Virginia Esperanza has a refrigerator that keeps her products fresh and protected from the heat.
This loan will be used to buy milk, chocolate, caramels, water, soft drinks, snacks, beer, ice pops, and ice cream.
