San Francisco De Asis Group's story

From León, Nicaragua meet the San Francisco De Asís Group. The group is in cycle 11, and it is comprised of eight members. They are known for their good payment behavior. The businesses that predominate are selling clothes, selling perfume, selling food, and a mini book shop.

Chinthya Valeska (wearing a printed shirt with white background and blue jeans) is 32 years old. She is considered to be a humble, charismatic, and responsible person. She is single, and she has three sons. They all go to school. Five people live in her house. Her business is selling clothes, and she has had the business for seven years. What she likes about her business is that with her undertaking she is able to help people. The challenges that she has faced with her business have been the low sales.

She will use the loan to buy two dozen shirts, four dozen pants, three boxes of shoes, children's clothes, and five dozen pairs of socks.

Her hopes and dreams for the future are to be able to buy a place to put a clothing store. She advises women to, with great care and responsibility, take advantage of the opportunity that Pro-Mujer provides in order to get ahead.

Please help her to fulfill her dream of buying a place for her business.
