Alba Luz's story

Alba is 51 years old. She is widowed, but currently has a partner who is a construction worker. Her children are adults and independent. She lives just with her partner.

Alba's occupation has been making and selling appetizers and typical national food for the past 8 years, which she learned by herself. She works 3 days a week from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm and sells from her house. One of her daughters helps her. Also for the last 2 years she has been selling men's and women's clothing 3 days a week. Previously she was a housekeeper.

She needs a loan for a new grill for her appetizer work, and also 4 bundles of clothing to sell in the end-of-year season. This will help her so that in the medium term her income will stabilize.

She dreams of dedicating herself fully to selling typical foods, of having a shop for clothing and a daughter in charge of that. Also that with her partner they will have a more stable life and time for the two of them.
