Yomayra Rocio's story

Yomayra is a 23-year-old single mother of two children, ages 4 and 6 months. They live with a relative in the canton of Jaramijo, known as the Fishing Cove, which has various tourist attractions.

Yomayra is an entrepreneurial woman who constantly seeks ways to provide for her children. She has run a small stationery business from her living room for four years, using display cases to showcase her products to the public. She is now requesting a loan to continue generating the necessary income.

She will use the loan to buy pencils, pens, erasers, bond paper, and other school supplies.
