A loan helped to buy a good quantity of cheese and a better tub to use to make sales.


Guadalupe Espicia's story

Guadalupe is 55 years old and studied through second grade in school. She is a single mother and has four children of which one lives with her.

Guadalupe has made a living selling cheese for seven years and she learned this work out of the desire to generate income to get ahead. She carries out the sales door-to-door and her work schedule is from 8am to 12pm.

She needs the loan in order to buy a good quantity of cheese and a better tub to use to make sales.

Guadalupe wishes to continue working and to have a better quality of life.
