Grupo De Las Reinas Group's story

This is Manuela, a hardworking woman with great aspirations in life. She is 45 years old, married, and the mother of seven children. She lives with her lovely family in the village of Paseyeneba, which has a hot climate.

Her objective is to improve her life along with her dear family. Because of this, she has been working hard in her business, which is buying and selling clothing that is typical of the area. With her effort and dedication, she is managing to advance her business, and with that she is supporting her children.

Manuela, and her group called “Grupo De Las Reinas”, want to continue giving a boost to their businesses, especially during this time of holy week festivals. For that reason, they come to the Asociación ADICLA to request a loan to invest in their businesses. Manuela specifically plans to invest in the purchase of traditional clothing in modern designs.
