Adding to basket
From Leon, Nicaragua, meet the Mi Redentor communal bank. The group has eight members and is in its second cycle.
They are characterized as being a responsible, organized grou. The main businesses are clothing sales, tortilla sales, making and selling piñatas, convenience stores, and selling pigs.
Leyla del Carmen (seen in a red wine shirt, blue skirt, seated) is 35 years old, married, and has one eight-year-old child. She is in elementary school. Six people live at her home.
Her business is event organizing and making piñatas. She has been doing it for three years. What she likes most about her business is coming up with new ideas every day.
The challenges she has faced with her business are negative comments from some customers.
She will invest the loan in the purchase of boxes, cardboard, paper, glue, curtains, rugs, lights, and flowers.
Her hopes and dreams for the future are to come to have a prosperous business to meet the needs of her community.
She advises the women to motivate themselves to start a business and prosper with the help given to the women by Pro-Mujer.
Invest in a woman who has many dreams and successes.
