A loan helped a member to buy and sell shoes.


Alebrijes Group's story

The Alebrijes group is made up of enterprising and responsible women who are committed to improving their families' standard of living. They live in humble neighborhoods where the standard of living is adequate.

This is the case of Belia, who sells shoes by catalog. She offers them in the neighborhood where she lives or over social media. She also has existing merchandise, but she doesn't manage a lot of inventory. This activity has allowed her to generate income with which she supports her family.

Belia's dream is to be able to open a locale where she can display all of her products.

The rest of the group are: Teresa, Cecia, Carla, Jose, Olivia, Rocio, Guadalupe, and Belinda, who have the goal of having a stable business that will allow them to grow more.

In this group: Maria Teresa, Cecia Karina, Carla Melissa, Maria Jose, Maria Olivia, Rocio, Maria Guadalupe, Belia Elisbe, Belinda Yaraset
