A loan helped to buy rice, sugar, soft drinks, bread, oil, and fertilizer to stock her inventory and generate greater income.


Eveling Del Carmen's story

This is Eveling, a humble merchant who has been making a name for herself with much effort and dedication. She started out with a food store which she has built upon thanks to a previous loan the two institutions granted her. She has also built a barbershop to generate income.

Now, she is once again seeking a loan with Kiva and MiCrédito to buy rice, sugar, soft drinks, bread, oil, and fertilizer to stock her inventory and generate greater income.

In the future, she hopes to keep working with these institutions to remodel her barbershop.

Translated from Spanish by Kiva volunteer Kristin Fisher.
