Oro Group's story

From Managua, Nicaragua, meet the Oro communal association, in loan cycle 4, and formed by 9 clients. They characterize themselves as being organized and responsible. The businesses which predominate are selling clothing, selling food, and a stationery store.

Jessica Maria (wearing a white shirt, blue pants, black shoes) is 36 years old, partnered, her partner works for an institution, and she has two children, ages 11 and 8, both of whom are students. Four people live in her house.

Her business is a stationery store and she has had it for 4 years. What she likes about her business is being able to serve the community with necessary products. The difficulty which has come up with the business is when sales are low.

She will invest the loan in the purchase of notebooks, pens, chart paper, cardstock, and to purchase a copy machine. Her hope and dream for the future is to have a large stationery shop where she sells everything.

She advises women to be encouraged and make the most of the loans offered to them and to establish their businesses. Help her to continue meeting her goals!
