Soraida works as a primary school teacher. She works from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Through this job, the member wants to get ahead. Her dream is to have a grocery store and clothing for sale.

The member requests the loan to buy a television for her house.

She is grateful to Kiva and agrees to meet her re-payments.
