Las Risueñas Group's story

The group "Las Risueñas" is made up of entrepreneurial, responsible, and supportive women who help each other to move forward day-to-day. They all have the goal of improving their family's quality of life. They live in popular areas with standard living conditions.

This is the case for Roybi who makes a living buying and selling general products. She has a small store in her home that is open every day from 7:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m. This work allows her to generate an income to support the costs of her home.

Roybi wants to have a bigger business that is better supplied so she can sell things like fried meats.

The other members of the group are Olivia, María, Brenda, and Nelly. They all have the goal of having stable businesses that will help them to expand.

In this group: Nelly, Olivia, Maria Luz, Brenda Lizbeth, Roybi
