Yuleica, age 32, is of Venezuelan nationality. She is in a common law marriage and has three children, She came to Ecuador full of dreams. She is an enterprising woman who lives with her family in a rented apartment in the center of the city.
Yuleica found her means of earning a living in the sale of dairy products, which she sells by going door to door. She has had her business for a year and a half, and it has permitted her to know more people, who have become her customers. She seeks to obtain a loan to acquire a larger quantity of products, because her market has been growing. She wants to take advantage of the opportunity to reach more customers and thus to improve her income.
She wishes to be able to obtain permanent residency in Ecuador and to open a distributorship of dairy products. That would ensure the economic stability of her family. She wants her children to be able to study and have a profession, without the need to leave the country as happened to her.
