Paz Y Vida El Malinche Group's story

From León, Nicaragua, meet the community association "Paz y Vida El Malinche," consisting of nine clients in their second loan cycle. They are known for being honest, responsible, and hardworking. The predominant businesses among them include the sale of firewood, tortillas, cosmetics, manicure services, and clothing sales.

Maria Antonia (wearing a mustard-colored shirt, blue jeans, and brown sandals) is 23 years old. She considers herself a kind, respectful, and responsible person. She is single, has two daughters, both of whom are in school, and lives with three people in her home. She operates a cosmetics and manicure business, which she has had for 18 months. What she likes most about her business is the income it generates, and she enjoys being the administrator. The main challenge she has faced with her business is competition.

The loan will help her invest in more products for her business. She will use the loan to buy a lamp, 15 acrylic powders, five acrylic liquids, 20 nail polishes, and 20 perfumes.

Her dreams and hopes for the future include having her own place where she could establish a beauty salon. She advises women not to give up, to keep moving forward, be confident in themselves, and strive to achieve their dreams.

Help her fulfill her dream of buying her own land!
