A loan helped to buy quintals of corn, lime powder, firewood, and other supplies for her tortilla business.


María Del Rosario's story

María is 39 years old and has a high school education. She and her daughter live by themselves.

María makes and sells tortillas. She must walk approximately 200 meters to reach the place where she works. Her work schedule is from 6:00 A.M. to 5:30 P.M.

María will use this loan to buy quintals of corn, lime powder, firewood, and other supplies so that she can continue selling tortillas. She dreams of paying for her daughter’s education with the profits from her business.
