Leslie, 21, is a young, married mother of two children. Many years ago she and her husband worked in a jewelry workshop and over time decided to open their own business. Now, Leslie manages a small jewelry studio. Through this worthwhile activity she has improved her and her family's quality of life considerably.
This lady has visited MiCredito in order to apply for a Kiva loan which she plans to use to buy kilos of gold and silver to make rings, earrings and bracelets to offer to her customers.
Her goal is to become well-known in the northern part of the country and open another shop to earn more income.
