Ana Lucia's story

Ana Lucia and her family live in Portoviejo. It is a place of beauty, blending rural landscapes with beaches and a varied cuisine that attracts tourists who come to visit.

Ana Lucia is a hardworking woman who does everything she can to earn her income and get ahead. She is alone with her children and has to act as both mother and father. Ana Lucia sells clothing and shoes. Her sales method is going door to door , and selling from her house and over social media. She sells on credit and collects weekly. In this way, she earns an honest living, and this is thanks to the helps she receives from the loans.

This loan is to buy pants, t-shirts, blouses, underwear, shoes, and other items of clothing.
