A loan helped buy sacks of onions, vinegar and cream to increase production and income.


Rosa Maria's story

Doña Rosa is a trader who leaves her house with a tray on her head to sell quesillo [soft fresh cheese], which has become her main source of income. She is grateful to these two organisations because they previously supported her with a loan.

At the moment she has returned to Kiva financing from MiCrédito to buy sacks of onions, vinegar and cream. After this investment she will increase her production and her income. Rosa hopes to continue working to fix up her house.
