Vilma Elizabeth, age 40, is the single mother of two children, ages 1 year and 15 years. Both depend upon her economically. She does not have relatives living abroad. Vilma works selling basic grains from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. This work permits her to generate income for her economic responsibilities.
Vilma wishes to strengthen her business and so she requests a loan to buy basic grains and containers. With this investment, she hopes to have greater availability for her customers, and to obtain better income.
Vilma, Edgardo, and Iris comprise the solidarity group "Los Generosos". They all have the goal of getting ahead.
In this group: Edgardo, Vilma Elizabeth, Iris Beatriz
