A loan helped a member to buy notebooks, pens, paper, and others.


11 Luis Espinal Group's story

The communal bank “Luis Espinal”, as part of the Collpani Agency, is formed by 8 members who are friends and neighbors of the area. It is run by a board of directors in which Norbertina is a member.

Norbertina is 57 years old, single, and has 3 children. She currently has a business selling school supplies in her stand.

The loan will be used to increase her capital and buy notebooks, pens, paper, and other supplies, that she will acquire from the wholesalers of the city of La Paz. She will then proceed to sell the products at her point of sale.

This way of work allows her to generate resources to bring a financial support to her family. Her aspirations are to improve her quality of life.

Norbertina asks that you keep putting your trust in her group.
